About Cantina Tombacco
Our history starts way back, when Giovanni Battista Tombacco decided to follow his love for the land and to build the first farm that produced peaches. A few years later, in 1919, aware that the nature of our territory could transform the oldest vines into good wine capable of making people’s lives better, even in historically complex times, decided to transform the company’s activity into wine-making.
The Tombacco family estates are located in the heart of the Veneto region: Trebaseleghe Vineyards, 20 hectares of silty soil and a humid climate. The resulting wines are round with low levels of acidity. Roncade Vineyards, 40 hectares of clayey soil, fertile and rich in mineral salts. Ideal for full-bodied wines, with a guaranteed intensity to the flavours of the grapes. Paese Vineyards, 20 hectares of stony soil, with positive effects on the alcohol content of the resulting wine.
L’Atelier by Aramis Vineyards was founded in 2012, dedicated to supplying a hand-selected range of quality wines to the independent on and off trade. From small beginnings we now operate across NSW, QLD, VIC and WA as well as in our home state of South Australia. Our distribution company was founded on our absolute belief that there was nobody better to represent our McLaren Vale brand than our own team. From that point our mission was clear - to bring together a collection of wine that would complement and match the quality of our own, and to present these to premium retail and hospitality trade across Australia. We believe in working collaboratively with carefully selected producers from Australia and beyond, each sharing the same passion and commitment to quality. Inspired by the Ateliers of 19th century Paris, we see ourselves as a meeting place for highly talented craftspeople at the top of their trade. Our portfolio consists of premium boutique wines from across Australia, New Zealand, Italy and Spain, all carefully selected to represent the very essence of their region, but most importantly at approachable price-points. We do not aim to build a trophy cabinet, we believe that you do not have to spend a fortune to drink like a king, and our selection reflects our ability to seek out wines that consistently over-deliver and represent the very best value.
