The Pawn Wine Co. began in 2002 as an experiment between friends - winemaker Tom Keelan and vigneron David Blows. The pair saw that alternative grape varieties were being used as blending tools by the bigger corporate wine companies instead of being stand alone artisinal Adelaide Hills wines of provenance. Tom and David realised the potential of these varietals to make old world wine styles and determined that they be allowed to shine in their own right. The first vintage of The Pawn received so many accolades, Tom set out to identify other idyllic viticultural sites and hand selected parcels of fruit within the Adelaide Hills to produce wines that are not only a bit unconventional, but enjoyable to drink, incredibly food friendly, and made in a style that reflects their true origins the ultimate in hand crafted, Adelaide Hills, Artisinal wine.

It is produced in the Southern French Languedoc-Roussillon, along the Mediterranean coastline. This region benefits from the Mediterranean climate, with the northern mountains of the Pyrenees embrace the vineyards of the Pays dOc like an amphitheatre. The coastline borders the region in the South and boasting views of beaches and vast expanses of vineyards with windswept soils. The landscape is made up of steep slopes, hilly peaks, vineyards, vegetation and the sea. The regions humidity and cool temperatures are partnered with hot dry summers allowing the vineyards to produce perfect maturity in the grapes packed with fruity aromas. Thanks to a heritage of over 2000 years of winemaking traditions and an integration of climates, reliefs and soils, this region is home to a diversity of extraordinary wines. It is the patchwork of wine growing areas in Pays dOc that creates an expression of these grape varieties that are unique. This allows us to produce a versatile range of wines reflective of the region.
