A Legacy of Excellence in Coonawarra

Nestled on the eastern edge of the famed Coonawarra terra rossa strip, Majella Wines stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Lynn family.


With roots dating back to 1968, the family’s journey from prime lamb producers to esteemed vignerons has shaped a unique narrative in the heart of the Coonawarra district.


The vision of the Lynn family transformed a scenic “terra rossa” bank into vineyards, marking the beginning of Majella’s rich wine-making heritage.


Over the years, the vineyards have expanded, now encompassing 60 hectares and showcasing an array of varietals, predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz, along with smaller plantings of Merlot and Riesling.


While Majella is celebrated for its exceptional wines, the land is also home to prime lamb production, creating a harmonious blend of agriculture and viticulture.


Visitors to the cellar door can enjoy picturesque views of the vineyards, often spotting sheep grazing among the vines in the off-season – a reminder of the family’s farming roots.


Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 19 as Majella invites you to its popular ten-year vertical tasting.


This special event offers a rare opportunity to meet the winemakers and family members, and dive deep into discussions about Majella’s award-winning Cabernet Sauvignon.


Following the tasting, guests can savour a delicious serving of Prof’s famous paella for just $7, available from 11am until sold out.


Do not miss this chance to experience the rich flavours and stories behind Majella Wines!
