The talented and charming Owen Giovine has had quite the journey at Paxton Wines… and with a name like GioVINE there was never any doubt where his career was headed!
It started at Paxton Cellar Door way back in 2016, with Owen working weekends while studying Viticulture and Oenology. For his 4th year placement he worked the 2018 vintage at the winery, and he must have done something right because he was invited back for vintage the following year. After graduating he joined the Paxton team as a full-time cellar hand, and in 2021 was made Assistant Winemaker.
Owen is a dedicated food and wine enthusiast, and his favourite pairing is the 2021 Paxton Grenache with roasted mushrooms and thyme on buttery polenta. Yum! Hopefully he cooks better than he tends to barrels…#paxtonwines #gosouthgolocal #winebarrel #southaustralia #mclarenvale #iChooseSA #Adelaide
Meet adorable baby Lillie and her proud parents! Hannah and Russ’ stunning wedding was held at Paxton Wines, and Lillie was conceived that very night… there must indeed be something in our organic, biodynamic wines 🙂
Paxton’s picturesque location offers the perfect backdrop for your Wedding or special Event – whether catering for 50 or 200 guests. We offer a unique, personalised experience, challenging the ordinary to produce the extraordinary with a sky’s-the-limit approach. We’d love to host your Event, and can help tailor it to make it truly memorable.

How does wine tasting work?
It's actually a question we get asked a lot.
So let us break it down for you:
•Visit us at our cellar door in Mclaren Vale
•Grab a table
•Our friendly staff will bring you a menu that includes different 'flight' options for every palate
•Choose 1 [and don't worry, your tasting buddy can choose a different range to you!]
•The staff will then take care of the rest. Pouring each wine as they chat about its characteristics, significance and history.
•After your tasting, feel free to purchase a bottle and wander the beautiful property OR stay for Doughballs Pizza (weekends only.)
It’s as easy as that.

Fresh out of quarantine 🐑
Did you know sheep have to spend 3 weeks in quarantine before they enter our vineyards? Thats' because in order for us to remain 100% biodynamic respectful (and certified!) we need the sheep to cleanse themselves before joining us in our pastures.
Sheep reduce the need for tractors while their manure adds nitrogen, carbon and good bacteria back into our soils.
And while there is no fruit on the vines their insatiable appetites keep down the weeds in our vineyard.

Wise words from David 💬
"The future is from the past. The whole world was organic before 1847, as farming chemicals were introduced then. We take a lot of pride in being part of the solution, and we are very sincere about our organic, biodynamic ways." - David Paxton.

Could this be our wine of the year? 🥇
At 97 pts, this is the best score we've ever received from WineState - and it's on our 2021 Quandong Farm Shiraz!
Great job, Ash! And, disquietly, we also happen to think it might just be one of the best QDF we've done 🤫
Shop our 2021 QDF Shiraz before it sells out!

Drying herbs in our [somehat spooky] historic cottage 👻
Here at Landcross Farm, we have a little herb garden where we grow the ingredients for our biodynamic potions and preps. Laid out to dry is our homegrown Stinging Nettle:
▶️Stinging nettle has been used for centuries in natural medicines for their incredible healing qualities.
▶️The preparation's main job is to correct the soil's iron, magnesium, and sulphur imbalance.
▶️BD504 preparation (dark colloidal humus made from dried stinging nettle) loosens the soil texture allowing the nutrients to release, disperse and be absorbed by plants.
Natural preps for the win 🙌
We need LOTS of space to store our garden preps and, our onsite historic cottage, while not quite fit to live in is the perfect fit for drying our plants 🙂

If you like big reds 🍷
Many of you might know us for our roaring events, live music and delicious @doughballsau, but the best part indeed has to be a winter wine tasting in our warm and welcoming cellar door 🔥
[Mandy is serving up a Premium Red Flights, which features our *ultra-limited release* Elizabeth Jean Shiraz 😍]
Tell us, do you get into Paxton’s robust reds or quaff our whites and roses?

Mandy worked as a cabin crew host in her past life, where she met all sorts of people, from grannies to celebs like Prince William and Nelson Mandela.
We're secretly glad she abandoned her high flier lifestyle because we don't know how we did it before Mandy came along! She's been with us for 7 years now, and her amiable nature and organisational skills are simply aspirational 🙌
Mandy's go-to wine: 2021 Paxton Graciano
Favourite part of the job: Chatting to guests about their travels
