Munda Wines was founded by Pauly Vandenbergh and Damien Smith with a vision to present Australian wine through a different lens, one that honours the deep history of the land and its First Nations people.

Their philosophy is to spark conversation, one glass at a time, by expressing the unique munda (land/terroir) of exceptional vineyard sites across Australia. Each wine acknowledges and celebrates the Aboriginal Countries it comes from, such as Kaurna, Ngadjuri, and Peramangk, recognising their cultural and historical significance.

Munda Wines focuses on varieties that are well-suited to their environment, promoting sustainability and harmony with the land. Proudly Supply Nation registered, the winery is a majority Indigenous-owned business dedicated to supporting and growing the Indigenous business community.

In the winery, the approach is minimal intervention, allowing each munda to speak clearly. Wines are matured in second and third-use oak to preserve purity, and bottled relatively early to capture freshness, energy, and brightness.

Sourced from the elevated (200m) and cooler Blewitt Springs sub-region in the northern reaches of McLaren Vale from ancient beach sand blown there in the last 10,000 years. A touch of whole bunch (10%), highly perfumed, bright red and blue fruits and spice, complemented by firm tannins showcases a modern interpretation of the classic Shiraz style.
