In Greek mythology, Prometheus is one of the Titans, the supreme trickster, and a god of fire. In common belief, he developed into a master craftsman, and in this connection, he was associated with fire and the creation of mortals. His intellectual side was emphasized by the apparent meaning of his name, Forethinker.
With this meaning in mind the team at Prometheus wines transform unique grapes into beautiful wines with personality and style.

Like many great ideas, Prometheus was born out of animated late-night conversations over a few full glasses of red.

Prometheus is a small eclectic group of friends that share the same dream: to squeeze every opportunity for innovation out of each grape and savour the good times (usually with a well-matched cheese).

Owner and winemaker, Daniel Zuzolo, is the beating heart of Prometheus Wines – and after more than two decades of experience in the vineyard it’s safe to say, he knows his stuff.

Daniel is passionate about regionality, which is a winemaker word for “grapes grown in the right place”. Fortunately, his skillset marries perfectly with that of our growers and makes for some truly unique and mouth-watering wines.

In the spirit of innovation, our growers have planted and nurtured fascinating emerging grape varieties that thrive in the warm, dry climate of the Riverland. Our goal now is to craft a new wave of polished and expressive wines that highlight and showcase the strengths of the Riverland – and we’d love to take your tastebuds on the journey with us.

As the champions of the Riverland, Prometheus bring you bright, bold and emerging wine varieties and styles, reshaping the rules and bending the boundaries, just as Prometheus did, to create something new, different, and utterly delicious.

A bottle of truly great wine starts in the soil, and the Riverland has all the roots of one of the greatest wine growing regions.

Known as ‘the engine room of Australian wine’, we don’t just produce premium wines – we produce wine-lovers. Our varieties represent a new story for the region – drops that refuse to disappear into the ocean – and we’re proud to be part of each and every one.
