Icons of the Coonawarra

Blockers

In 1950, Eric Brand (a baker by trade) and his wife Nancy Redman acquired the Brand's Laira property in the heart of Coonawarra. For the next 16 years, Eric worked as a ‘Blocker’ – the name given to Coonawarra landholders who sold their grapes to other wineries in the region. This title now lives on as the label for our Blockers range of wines.

History

Brand’s Laira is an iconic winery, nestled in the heart of the famed ‘terra rossa’ strip of the Coonawarra region in South Australia. Steeped in heritage with a wealth of old vine vineyards dating back to 1893, Brand’s Laira offers a range of elegant yet richly flavoured premium wines from this distinct region.

Winemaking Philosophy

With a winemaking philosophy that focuses on sourcing the best possible fruit, the Brand’s Laira wines are classically Coonawarra in nature, combining the powerful influence of the rich red soils of the ‘terra rossa’ with skilled winemaking to create world-renowned wines. Each range exhibits a shared standard of excellence and a distinctly Coonawarra style.

Visit our Cellar Door

Centred on the original stone building of Eric Brand's Cellar, the newly renovated Cellar Door takes you on a journey through time to explore the history of Brand's Laira, making it the perfect setting to enjoy a guided wine tasting.

Brand’s Laira cellar door has now reopened following its recent refurbishment by a local South Australian team, making it a go-to Coonawarra winery.
