Our Story

Harry and Nita Eleftheriadis arrived in Australia from Greece in 1957. In 1964, Harry and Nita purchased their first 6 hectares of grapes on Paroo Street, Renmark North. The family now owns substantial vine acreage, with some ageing more than 50 years.

These vines produce a low yield resulting in the production of premium quality wines for their bottled product range.

Ral Ral Creek Wines was first established in 2007 by the Eleftheriadis family as an expansion of their already well established operations in the growing and production of premium wine products.

The Ral Ral Creek winery was purchased by the Eleftheriadis family in 2011 and now serves as the base of operations in transforming the family grown, quality grapes into premium quality wine products.

We regard ourselves as innovative and focused viticulturalists and wine producers.  Ral Ral Creek Wines in some respects breaks the mould created by other family owned wineries. Our family owned winery creates a range of brands from our premium labels like Botanic HillEarly Explorer and Rockbase to Early Settler, Lizard Creek and Pitt’s Hill, which present as easy drinking and easy on the pocket.

We draw on our extensive vineyards in the Riverland along with making wine from Premium South Australian regions.

This in conjunction with a modern winemaking facility ensures our current and future generations are firmly within our control.

Our Vineyard

The Eleftheriadis family own substantial vineyards – some ageing more than 50 years. The specially selected varieties produce a low yield which allows us to produce premium quality wines and our own product range.
