Based in Angle Vale, Virgara Wines shows us how hard work and family can create a successful business.
From Southern Italy to the Adelaide Plains, the Virgara family have always had a strong work ethic. Migrating in 1962, the family of 12 settled at Angle Vale. From there they worked on the land producing potatoes, vegetables and grains.
Their passion for wine and the land saw the Virgara family branch into wine production, believing that the Adelaide Plains region has some of the best soil for vines. The existing winery premises (previously Barossa Valley Estate) was an ideal location for them to expand into viticulture and wine production. They feel that the Adelaide Plains environment is much like the Mediterranean one they grew up with and is a wonderful climate to produce quality fruit.
Tony Carapetis is the incumbent winemaker, who with over 18 years of experience in the industry gives the family great confidence in the quality of their wines.
For the Virgara family winemaking has always been a family tradition and the Virgara Wines premises at Angle Vale is the tangible proof of their hard work and passion.
