Padthaway
began taking shape in 1952 as the centre of a soldier settlement scheme, 290km
south-east of Adelaide. The name, in fact, is a corruption of an Aboriginal
word meaning ‘good water,’ which, combined with the soil structure,
might explain the area's relatively recent explosion on the Australian wine
scene.
After the discovery of a strip of earth with a structure very similar to terra
rossa soils of the famous Coonawarra region about 80km to the south, the first
vines were planted at Padthaway in 1968 and quickly transformed marginal grazing
land into a top wine producing strip
