History

The earliest recorded evidence of vine planting was in 1836 by a settler named John Barton in Chichester Gardens, North Adelaide. In 1836 George Stevenson planted a vineyard in Adelaide and was producing wine as early as 1841.

Following the spread of urban development, Hack's vines were pulled up and replanted in a new vineyard at Echunga Springs near Mount Baker. In 1843, he sent a case of wine made from the vineyard to Queen Victoria, famously being the first Australian wine to reach the Queen.
