Atlas Wines

Owner and winemaker Adam Barton had an extensive winemaking career before establishing Atlas Wines: in McLaren Vale, the Barossa Valley, Coonawarra, the iconic Bonny Doon Vineyard in California and, most recently, at Reillys Wines in the Clare Valley. He has 6ha of shiraz and 2ha of cabernet sauvignon grown on a stony ridge on the eastern slopes of the region, and sources small batches from other distinguished sites in the Clare and Barossa valleys. The quality of the wines is extraordinarily good and extraordinarily consistent. JAMES HALLIDAY
