Somewhere in between managing a 160-acre vineyard in Gumeracha, and another 200-acre vineyard in One Tree Hill, Vince Scaffidi finds the time to produce the award winning varietals and blends under the Talunga and Scaffidi labels.

Vince has been making wine for around 30 years, winning a number of medals in amateur shows before making a more "serious" go of it, initially with the Talunga label, and now the new Scaffidi label, using grapes from their One Tree Hill property.

Tina Scaffidi, Vince's wife and Talunga Cellar Door Manager says, "Vince's passion has always been wine. He is a true Vigneron, he grows the grapes and then turns them into wine. As he grew older he went back to his roots [Vince was born in Sicily, Italy]. He purchased this plot in the Adelaide Hills and recreated his little Sicily."

By hand picking the grapes at optimum maturity, and following a centuries' old family tradition of wine making, Vince creates outstanding quality wines with the flavours and characteristics of the Adelaide Hills and the exciting new development at One Tree Hill.

"It takes four seasons to make a glass of wine."
