Zema Estate is a family-owned winery with a proud Italian heritage, dedicated to crafting exceptional Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. Since 1982, we have built a reputation for producing wines of outstanding quality – with a consistency that defies vintage and seasonal fluctuations.
The strong values that launched our winery have not changed: estate grown, hand pruning, careful fruit selection, sustainable viticulture, passionate winemaking, patient bottle ageing, and deep respect for the place and provenance of Coonawarra.
Proudly independent, Zema Estate is shaped by family values – trust, dedication, and an unwavering pursuit of excellence. Our wines tell a story of heritage, hard work, and the passion that has defined us for generations.
If you’re visiting Coonawarra, we’d love to welcome you for a tasting at our Cellar Door. For a truly special experience, book a Private Hosted Experience to explore our rare museum wines and discover the history and craftsmanship behind Zema Estate.
