The Amadio vineyard is located north of the Adelaide Hills wine region, between the areas of Kersbrook and Williamstown. It is a slightly warmer part of the Adelaide Hills, resulting in early ripening fruit with fine elegant tannin and bright acidity. There are multiple aspects to the vineyard, including multiple soil types, with the Sangiovese planted on rocky alluvial soil. The vineyard was planted in the late nineties and sits approximately 350 metres above sea level.
