Springs Road Wines

South Australia | Kangaroo Island

Our Review

Springs Road runs east–west across the northern part of Kangaroo Island. The Springs Road Vineyards were established in '94 on a small sheep property about 7km west of Kingscote and are now owned and operated by Joch Bosworth and Louise Hemsley-Smith from Battle of Bosworth in McLaren Vale (see separate entry). Small quantities of chardonnay, shiraz, cabernet sauvignon and a cabernet sauvignon shiraz blend are made from the very low-yielding 20yo vines. The vineyards have been managed organically since Louise and Joch took over in '16, and are awaiting certification. -JAMES HALLIDAY
