Kay Brothers Block 6

"Established in 1890 by brothers Herbert and Frederick Kay, the Kay Brothers Amery Vineyards grace the rolling foothills of the Southern Mt.Lofty Ranges, 40 kms south of Adelaide. The heritage listed winery celebrated its first grape crush in 1895 and is the oldest McLaren Vale winery still in founding family hands with third generation Colin Kay continuing the family winemaking tradition. Located at the top of a hill 5 kms from the McLaren Vale township, the Cellar Door and original winery complex boast some stunning panoramic views of the surrounding picturesque valleys and hillsides."www.rareaustralianwine.com
