Lindeman's

The winery was founded by the immigrant English naval doctor Dr. Henry John Lindeman (1811-1881) in 1843 in the Hunter Valley (New South Wales, Australia). He had five sons and five daughters. Lindeman acquired knowledge about viticulture through visits to German and French wine regions. He planted Sémillon on 40 hectares near the Paterson Rivers, which was then referred to as Hunter River Riesling. He named the place Cawarra, which means "beside running water" in the indigenous language. Lindeman had the idealistic view that the rampant alcoholism among the immigrants could be curbed through the enjoyment of wine instead of brandy and also promoted the health benefits of wine.
