The Vines

Experience Our Estate

Kies Family Wines is proud to call our 165-acre vineyard in the southern end of the Barossa Valley home. As a single vineyard and estate-grown winery, we produce wines that reflect the unique terroir of our land, nurtured by over three generations of Kies family heritage.

Our vines have been lovingly cared for by Michael Kies and his father, Ken Kies, before him—both of whom have dedicated their lives to cultivating exceptional wines that showcase the essence of the Barossa.

Single Vineyard and Estate Grown

A single vineyard and estate-grown winery, we produce wines that reflect the craftsmanship of three generations of Kies family heritage.

Generations of Care and Dedication

For decades, the Kies family has tended to the land, ensuring that every vine receives the attention it needs to thrive. From Ken Kies, who first worked the land with a deep passion for wine, to Michael Kies, who continues that legacy today, the vineyard has been a labour of love passed down through generations.

This commitment to quality is what makes our wines truly special, each bottle a testament to years of hard work, dedication, and love for the land.
