Coriole

Coriole’s bedrock is in the strength of its outstanding Shiraz plantings: it is also known for introducing a range of Italian varietals to Australia.

ABOUT

McLaren Vale – nestling between the Mount Lofty Ranges and the white, sandy beaches of the Gulf of St Vincent – is one of South Australia’s oldest, most picturesque wine regions. It is also one of the greenest, with its ongoing water use efficiency strategies and commitment to environmental sustainability.

It was here that the Lloyd family established their winery in 1969, on the predominantly terra rossa soils – soils favouring deep-coloured, well-structured red wines with great capacity for ageing. They released their first Shiraz in 1970, and now regularly win awards – indeed the Lloyd Reserve Shiraz is one of McLaren Vale’s greatest. Coriole have just started the certification process to organic – whilst they’ve farmed organically for many years they have now taken the decision to certify, a process they tell us feels harder and more time consuming than the organic viticulture itself!
