The origins of Paringa Wines & our name
The name “Paringa” reflects our partnership with nature; it derives from the local Aboriginal language for “place at the river”.
Farming one of the driest continents on earth, water and rivers have always been a major player in the vineyards; none more than the Mighty Murray.
The River Murray is to Australia what the Mississippi is to America, and the Rhine is to Europe.
