Sevenhill Cellars is the oldest winery in South Australia's Clare Valley.

Sevenhill was established by the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) in 1851 to produce sacramental wine. While this tradition continues today, Sevenhill is also highly regarded for its premium table wines, which are recognised for the regional qualities that have put the Clare Valley on the world stage.

Verdelho is a Portuguese variety that is most famous for its use in some of the long-lived fortified wines of Madeira. At Sevenhill, it is used to make a wine in the style of a White Portâ. The fruit is left on the vine to increase sugar levels and to develop rich tropical/dried apricot fruit flavours.

Sevenhill's Liqueur Verdelho is a limited-edition wine that is blended from carefully selected stock that has been allowed to slowly develop in large, old oak vessels. The blend has an average age of 10 years and exhibits a deep orange colour, with aromas of marmalade and dried apricots.

The palate is rich and silky, with flavours of candied orange peel, followed by a toasty caramel and nutty, lingering finish.
