Serafino (Steve) Maglieri emigrated from Italy in 1964, arriving in Australia with a passion for grape growing, winemaking and the dream of establishing a winery of his own. With the assistance of his father Giovanni, Steve planted his first vines in McLaren Vale that now extends to 350 acres, laying the foundation of a winemaking dynasty.
Today, Steve’s daughter Maria Maglieri continues to uphold the family legacy, leading the winery with a blend of tradition and innovation.
Our 350 acres of vineyards in McLaren Vale are where the Serafino legacy flourishes. Planted by Steve and Giovanni, these vineyards have become the heart of our winemaking process.
Here, we cultivate a diverse range of both traditional McLaren Vale varieties and exciting Italian-style wines, nurtured by the region’s unique climate and soil, which impart a distinct character to every bottle.
The success of Serafino Wines is a reflection of the exceptional dedication and expertise of our team, guided by Maria Maglieri.
From the early efforts of Steve and Giovanni to the present-day artisans, each member of our team brings a deep commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Their collective passion and skill ensure that every bottle embodies the excellence and rich heritage of Serafino Wines.
At Serafino, our commitment to craftsmanship is evident in every step of the winemaking process. From the meticulous care of our vineyards to the innovative techniques in our state-of-the-art winery, we strive to create wines that honour both tradition and innovation.
Our dedication has earned us numerous national and international accolades, including prestigious awards for our Shiraz and other varietals.
