Paxton one of the largest biodynamic producers in Australia and also one of the first pioneers of biodynamic farming in Australia. Paxton’s biodynamic belief is founded, quite simply, in soil health. When vines live in truly healthy, chemical free soils, in ecologically sound environments, they will produce the best quality and tasting grapes, hence the best wines.

His prestigious vineyards have some of the regions oldest vines including the legendary 125 year old EJ shiraz vines. His principal focus is on his own operations in McLaren Vale with Paxton Wines, established in 1998 as a premium Shiraz, Grenache and Cabernet producer.

In 2011, Paxton became a fully certified organic and biodynamic wine producer.
