Welcome to Majella Wines, one of the most awarded small Australian wineries.

We are a family-owned winery based in the famous Coonawarra wine region in South Australia, home to some of Australia’s greatest wines.

The Lynn family have been residents of the Penola – Coonawarra district for five generations, starting off as blacksmiths, wheelwrights, storekeepers, and finally, graziers.

In 1968 Brian and Anthony Lynn started planting a vineyard on the Coonawarra property that their parents had purchased back in 1960. At that stage, the property was used for prime lamb production, but a decision was made to convert a lovely “terra rossa” bank on the front of the farm into vineyards.

Eventually, the size of the vineyards grew to 60 hectares.
