Old Plains

Old Plains

Old Plains is a joint venture formed by two high school friends whose paths re-crossed in the olive growing business, Tim Freeland and Domenic Torzi, the aim of the Old Plains wines is to preserve the heritage, character and quality of the few remaining parcels of old vines on the Adelaide Plains planted by Italian immigrants after World War II. In some cases all that has survived of a 30 acre plot after the 1980s vine pull is a couple of rows that, since 2002 have been coaxed back in to production to make these big, flavourful wines.

Further vineyard finds in the nearby Mount Lofty region have enabled the Longhop range to be created, the name a pun on the ubiquitous “critter” brands from Australia, and a cricketing term that will bemuse many.
