The early years at Paringa were pioneering times. Until the construction of the winery in 1998, Lindsay made his wines in a shed. His first vintage was in 1987. One ton of fruit was forecast, so he bought an old milk vat to ferment it in. The ton turned out to be a mere 140 kilo, so he dusted down an old fish tank to use that had been stashed in the garage!
