About Gaelic Cemetery Wines

Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard crafts small volumes of super premium Clare Valley wines that reflect the variety, vintage and uniqueness of the place. Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard is a highly awarded, James Halliday five star rated wine brand with multiple medals and trophies won at Clare Valley wine shows. The wines from Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard are packaged using fully recyclable materials including the bottles, corks, screwcaps and cartons that are used. Our wines are also vegan friendly.

Our vineyard was established in 1996 on a parcel of land immediately adjacent to the historic Gaelic Cemetery approximately five kilometres due north of the Clare township – hence the name. The Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard label design reflects the simplicity and minimal intervention approach we take with the wine. The image of the thistle is taken from an old headstone in the cemetery.

The Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard brand was sold in late 2019 and has continued to go from strength to strength. The Pike family created an excellent brand and award-winning wine with Gaelic Cemetery. Our aim is to further support this excellent foundation to ensure the business grows organically and sustainably over the long term.
