Grapes for Good is an initiative that has brought together six wineries from the Adelaide, South Australia wine region of Langhorne Creek, to create a mix of wines supporting Zoo South Australia’s conservation efforts. Part proceeds from sales of these special wines go to Monarto Safari Park, the largest safari park outside of Africa. More than 70% of species at Monarto are threatened with extinction in the wild and need our support and protection to survive and thrive. This clever alliance earned Grapes for Good the Best of Wine Tourism Award for ‘Tourism Collaboration Excellence’ in 2023.

Penfolds and Grange: The View from the Top
I tend to actively avoid the word ‘iconic’ as it seems like a somewhat crass descriptor for most wines. However, for truly iconic wines, what other word applies? When tasked with the assignment to write about an iconic wine from Adelaide, South Australia, there seemed to be little contest. Penfolds Grange was the obvious choice. As I sit in Penfolds Chief Winemaker Peter Gago’s office at Magill Estate to discuss Grange’s role as an icon, Gago accepts its truth, but with a sigh.
