About Us 

As a family partnership, Pyramid Hill Wines is run by a small and dedicated team. Richard Hilder, a long-time viticulturalist with the well known Rosemount Estate, was responsible for establishing many of the original Rosemount vineyards in the Upper Hunter Valley prior to his involvement with Pyramid Hill Wines, and he brings a wealth of viticultural and industry experience to the Pyramid Hill operation. Richard’s wife Delma is involved too, deftly handling the ever-increasing mountain of financial bookwork and compliance paperwork.

Nicholas Adler and Caroline Sherwood exchanged running their own documentary film production companies in Sydney and London for a move to Pyramid Hill, where they now live with their four young children, relishing the challenge of successfully establishing Pyramid Hill as a high quality producer of specialised premium wines.

 

 

History

In 1996 the Adler-Sherwood and Hilder families got together and purchased the Pyramid Hill property, an old dairy farm that was looking rather neglected. After many weeks of removing old fences and clearing the place up, vines were planted in 1997. With a combination of experience, good soil, good climate, good management and good luck, the first crop was harvested in 1999 and we haven’t looked back since. Now with 185 acres of mature vines producing premium fruit, we are thrilled to release our new range of Pyramid Hill wines.
