Seppelt has been at the forefront of Australian winemaking for over 160 years. Today Seppelt winemaking is led by Adam Carnaby as the custodian and guardian to Seppelt’s quality, character and heritage.  His passion on respecting terroir and regional expression are his driving factors to crafting Seppelt’s great wines perfect for collections and celebrations.

Appointed late last year, Senior Winemaker, Adam Carnaby sites the importance of terroir and regional expression as driving factors to crafting Seppelt’s great wines, perfect for collections and celebrations.
“We have a rich and long history that’s over 150 years old; Seppelt’s wines are well established in the Grampians wine region. I’m very proud to continue the traditions of crafting magnificent sparkling and exceptional table wine, particularly Shiraz,” said Adam.

Over the years, Seppelt has seen many legendary and iconic winemakers that are part of Australia’s rich history in winemaking.  Seppelt’s history began with an entrepreneurial French couple who immigrated to the small town of Great Western at the foot of The Grampians in Victoria. In 1851 they planted the vineyards which would eventually be the source of vine cuttings that Joseph Best planted in 1866, in his Great Western Vineyard.  
Over many generations Seppelt has paved the way in progressive cool climate style wines.
