About Wicks Estate Wines
Wicks Estate Wines is a family owned and operated wine company producing hand crafted wines from their vineyard located at Woodside in the picturesque Adelaide Hills, one of Australia’s premier cool climate wine growing regions. Co-founders Tim and Simon Wicks proudly front the Wicks Estate Label armed with a firm belief in long term success through dedication to excellence.
The Company’s outstanding achievements have positioned the Wicks Estate Brand where it is regarded as one of the Adelaide Hill’s finest wine producers.
It was our agricultural ties that first captured our passion for the Adelaide Hills, with the establishment of the Wicks family fruit orchards and nursery at Highbury by our great grandfather L.J. Wicks in 1918.
Back then the nursery was used to propagate fruit trees for returning soldier settlements after WW1 and the orchards grew a number of fruit including plums, apples, peaches, apricots and even persimmon trees.
It was only in 1999 when we purchased the 54 hectare property, we now call home—and Wicks Estate; for its unique aspects, premium vineyard sites and diversity of it’s terrain; that we ventured into the world of cool climate wine. Fast Forward 20+ years and Wicks Estate is a true family affair.
