Greenhill Wines sits high in Summertown's Piccadilly Valley, one of the coolest corners of the Adelaide Hills, where owners Drs Paul and Penny Henschke — both former research scientists — craft ultra-cool-climate varieties including Pinot Noir, Gruner Veltliner, Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from their estate vineyard. The property is set in a 130-year-old renovated settlers cottage overlooking the valley, and the on-site Restaurant Hester serves lunch alongside cellar door tastings every Friday to Sunday (11am–5pm, lunch 12pm–3pm). Sustainable practices are integral to the estate's philosophy; no formal organic certification is stated on the winery's website.
