Leconfield - the home of Richard Hamilton Wines at McLaren Vale.

With a strong wine industry heritage dating from 1837, the family has developed a distinguished international reputation for elegant fine wines. Leconfield wines are based on a simple philosophy – great wines are crafted from great vineyards.

In the heart of the Coonawarra terra rossa strip, the winery and Cellar Door are amongst the Leconfield vineyards, 4km north of Penola on the Riddoch Highway.

Built in 1974 by Sydney Hamilton, the limestone winery building has a barrel storage of 2000 barrels, predominantly sourced from France. There is an intimate tasting room inside the winery where visitors can sample the wines while watching the winemaking team at work. The full Leconfield and Leconfield Synergy ranges are available for tasting.

400km south of Adelaide, and west of Melbourne – approximately a 4-hour drive from each city.
