Sidewood Estate

Sidewood Estate is owned by Owen and Cassandra Inglis who operate it as a winery and cidery. Situated in the Onkaparinga Valley, the vines weather the cool climate of the Adelaide Hills. Significant expenditure on regeneration of the vineyards was already well underway when Sidewood invested over $12 million in the winery, increasing capacity from 500t to 2000t each vintage and implementing sustainable improvements – it purports to be the largest sustainably certified winery in the region. Sidewood maintains four premium vineyards located in Nairne, Echunga, Charleston and its flagship Mappinga vineyard in Oakbank. A multimillion-dollar restaurant, cellar door and cidery opened in '20. Wines are released under the Sidewood Estate, Stablemate and Mappinga labels. -JAMES HALLIDAY
