Coming Up
A geography-teaching background can sharpen the way vineyard work is read: as a sequence of place, season, and change. Lindsay McCall moved from the classroom into wine and has held the owner, winemaker & viticulturist role at Paringa Estate since 1984, with Pinot Noir as the specialty named in his profile.
Where They Are Now
At Paringa Estate in Red Hill South, Victoria, Australia, the winemaking work sits inside a rural setting rather than apart from it. Lindsay McCall describes that connection plainly: the vines, the seasons, and the daily involvement in vineyards are the terms by which the work is understood.
In Their Words “I love living in a rural environment. Watching the vines grow, watching the seasons pass... the thrill of being involved in vineyards.”
