Lindsay Stanley and Jim Lambert started their partnership over a year ago when the Lambert family from Las Vegas purchased a vineyard in the Barossa Valley. Jim for many years had been interested in wine and wine-making, and Lindsay had been making award winning wines for over 30 years. Over a long, long lunch they agreed to a vision where Lambert quality fruit would be combined with the winemaking expertise of Lindsay. The result would be premium bottled wines to be enjoyed by themselves, friends, and the world.
