Conceived in France and created in the Adelaide Hills, The Lane wines are neither European or Australian in style, rather the best of both worlds. These wines have the structure and finesse of Europe's best, complemented by intense fine fruit flavours and spice, a product of Australian sunlight and the terroir of The Lane.

The Lane is about style.

An evolutionary new style. Slippery & sensuous. Delivers in the mouth. Powerful but fine. Occasion wine. Unique.
