Geddes Wines is the McLaren Vale business of winemaker Tim Geddes, who was born in Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, and began in wine in 1991 at Mission Estate, one of New Zealand's oldest wineries. After graduating in oenology from the University of Adelaide, he moved to McLaren Vale in 2000 to work for Rosemount Estate and then for the late Wayne Thomas, and in 2007 set up on his own.
Tim is a contract winemaker for many small and mid-sized labels and makes his own Geddes and Seldom Inn wines. His single-vineyard wines come from sites such as a dry-grown 1941 vineyard in the sands of Blewitt Springs, an old vineyard near Maslin Beach on shallow soil over seashell limestone, and a vineyard planted in 1999.
The winery and cellar door are on Blewitt Springs Road, open by appointment in winter and most days in summer.
