Gold Medal – Royal Hobart Wine Show 2025
Serafino (Steve) Maglieri arrived in McLaren Vale in 1968 determined to enter the wine industry. From picking, pruning and cellar hand work to planting his own vineyards and building his first winery, Steve has enjoyed great success. Today the Serafino vineyards have expanded to 300 acres of prime McLaren Vale land and a new state of the art winery, purpose built for small batch production.
Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"Full bodied and rich in flavour, showing characteristics of blackberries, plums and spice with vanilla notes from integrated oak."
91/100 Huon Hooke, The Real Review, December 2025 (2023 Vintage)
"Very bright, deep purple colour. The aromas are likewise bright and concentrated, essency and loaded with preserved plum, violet aromas, fruit taking the upper hand. The tannins are supple and there's refreshing but crisp acidity: the wine is just a wee bit callow. I'd keep it for a couple of years before broaching. The raw materials are certainly there."
