Alkoomi Wines

Alkoomi Wines established in 1971 takes it's name from a local Aboriginal word that means 'a place we chose'. Alkoomi wines are distributed in all of Australia and around the world nad make a range of wines to suit every taste.

The Alkoomi vineyard is located only 80kms inland from the Southern Ocean, resulting in good winter rains and dry ripening months. Summer days and evenings are cooled by fresh sea breezes, enabling ideal slow ripening of grapes. This climatic pattern is very similar to that of the best Bordeaux vintages in France.

The vines are all pruned by hand. Machine harvesting occurs in the cool of the morning, usually starting at 2am, to ensure that grapes arrive at the winery in top condition.
