Introducing: Amadio Wines Amadio Wines is a 3rd generation of winemakers from the Adelaide Hills (in Kersbrook / Northern Adelaide Hills). We grow over 25 different grape varieties on our 320 acres and we are also a supplier of premium grapes to other wineries inclusive of Penfolds; Fox Gordon; Mr Riggs; Yalumba; Seppeltsfield; Peter Lehman and Orlando to name a few. Although we are not classified ‘Organic’ we do commit to minimal use of chemicals and sparingly use only those that have least impact in our quest for the preservation of our healthy vineyard environment and natural eco system. We use minimal preservatives in our wines. Danniel Amadio is the winemaker and CEO of Amadio Wines and his father ‘Caj’ Amadio still tends to the vineyard. Caj Amadio started the boutique winery ‘Chain of Ponds’ in the mid 80’s which was sold by the family in 2002. Our beverage proposition is centred on brand integrity which encompasses its’ quality, positioning and profitability (for the vendor). 10 www.gma.org.au 12  WWW.GMA.ORG.AU We do not sell to the monopoly chained retail outlets (Coles & Woolworths owned), therefore we do not follow a discounting strategy which is imperative to upholding your beverage margins. Amadio Wines is the official wine of the Australian PGA Championships and previously the Australian Masters with a strong and longterm commitment to assisting the industry via club support.
