Adelaide Hills
Red 5 Star Rated Winery – By James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion 2024
In the early 2000s, owners and vignerons Owen and Cassandra Inglis fell in love with the gently sloping
corner of the Adelaide Hills that is now Sidewood Estate. Sidewood was founded in 2004 with a vision to
create beautifully balanced, elegant wines with a sense of place. Wines that are delicious on the palate
and also reflect the soil, the climate and lifestyle of the Adelaide Hills.
Sidewood Estate also owns its own winery and bottling facilities at Nairne, which means the experienced
team at Sidewood has complete control over the making of its wines from the cultivating of vines in the
vineyard to final bottling at the winery. This ability to reflect on, refine and tend to both vines and wines
from grape to glass results in Sidewood Estate producing some of the highest quality wines in the world.
Since then, Sidewood has won over 50 Trophies and 400 Gold Medals.
