Zema wines produce a very good wine. Great reds. We visited during the week and it was quiet so the salesperson had time to explain the wines. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. Recommend
Zema Estate has a nice selection of wines. My favourite was the Cab Sav and the blend called Cluney.
Zema Wines is one of the traditional Coonawarra wineries but one that still sells their wines are very reasonable prices. The staff are down to earth and not pretentious as experienced at some nearby wineries. The wines are all very good but my favourites are the Cluny and the Cabernet Sauvignon. Both represent very good value. There is local produce and food available. Always are great stop when in Coonawarra. If you join their membership you get 10% discount.
Zema Estate is kind of an icon in Coonawarra, with their wines enjoying a strong following. Our experience with family owned wineries is that the owners and staff are passionate about what they do, so we were surprised and disappointed that the folk behind the counter almost seemed bored.
The lady took us through the wines with no enthusiasm and didn't seem eager to clinch a sale. No narrative about the famous family. Not much at all.
We went away with no sense of having learnt or shared anything.
Popped in for Coonawarra by night and had Mrs Zema's famous puzza and bought a bottle of their Shiraz. It was excellent - their Clooneys and CabShiraz's are outstanding. We love their chilli paste as well. Dont miss this one anytime you are here.
We love Zema Estate. We've been visiting here for years. The reds are extraordinary. It's a no frills place that weirdly never seems that popular. There's never much hype about the place despite the very serious quality of the wines which are reasonably priced. Perhaps it's because the family are usually a little brusque in my experience. There's not much ceremony or affability here. You just go in, taste their wonderful wines, don't engage in much small talk essentially due to indifference, purchase then leave. But as an old time customer, you'll thank the almighty when you pull the bottles out again as the wine is delectable. There's an honesty about the whole thing and it's more efficient than other cellar door visits. Long live Zema Estate. We love 'em.
