[edit] Orlando v Jacob's Creek

Regarding a recent change made to the winery list, there is no physical 'Orlando' winery in the Barossa Valley (the closest is the Orlando Wyndham estate in NSW's Hunter Valley, there is however a Jacob's Creek Winery which is owned by the Orlando Wyndham Group and is considered Orlando's #1 winery. Posted 21:00, June 12, 2005 by Oliyoung

Please note that there is a physical 'Orlando' winery in the Barossa Valley winery known as Orlando Wines, located in Rowland Flat, South Australia. This winery is often incorrectly called Jacob's Creek Winery, probably due to the large volumes and international exposure of its flagship wine brand Jacob's Creek. The edit you reverted was actually correct. Please see the article Orlando Wines for more details. Scharks 03:03, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
