Discover more about Lino Ramble

Lino Ramble is a small-batch boutique winery crafting sustainable and intriguing wines from McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills. Their cellar door is located within a beautifully restored 1897 sandstone cottage on McMurtrie Road, offering a unique and intimate tasting experience. Founded in 2012 by Andy Coppard and Angela Townsend, Lino Ramble focuses on producing wines that are both drinkable and textural, using carefully selected fruit from single vineyard sites. They work with growers who prioritize the health of their land and adapt to climate challenges. The winery is known for its pioneering spirit, exploring lighter-drinking Mediterranean varieties that differ from McLaren Vale's traditional full-bodied reds. The cellar door is shared with Bondar Wines and Sherrah Wines, creating a collaborative and dynamic environment for wine lovers. Visitors can enjoy relaxed tastings led by the winemaker or knowledgeable staff, gaining insights into the vineyards and winemaking philosophy. The cottage itself has a rich history, once belonging to the Sparrow family of Wirra Wirra winery, adding to the charm and character of the experience. Tastings are available both indoors and outdoors on the veranda or lawn, weather permitting. Bookings are recommended, especially for groups.
