About the Winery
The Taylor family's long-standing association with the Clare Valley begins in the late 1950's when as Sydney wine merchants, they partner with the Clare Valley Co-operative to bottle and distribute their own wines under the Chateau Clare label.

On July 20, 1969, their quest brought them to a site by the Wakefield River in South Australia's Clare Valley.
