Vintage Crew - 2010

Friday 5th March 2010


The new crew is about three weeks into the 2010 vintage season, and it's nice to see they are all still smiling. This is because the weather has been luxuriously cool (and quite liveable)which means the grapes are ripening slowly, drawing up the goodness from the soil, and not suffering from any adverse weather conditions, such as heatwaves and floods. more...

Textiles In The Tasting Room

Tuesday, 1st December 2009


Visitors to our Tasting Room in the beautiful Barossa Valley will notice some interesting artworks on the walls. We run our Tasting Room as an Art Exhibition Space, giving local South Australian artists a chance to show off their new creations, or blow the dust off some of their older pieces. This also gives our Tasting Room a fresh look and atmosphere every month. more...


ROLF'S DIARY
Tasting through Asheville, North Carolina

Monday 16th November, 2009


I arrived into Asheville after an 'interesting' flight from Birmingham. I am now slowly getting used to delays, gate changes and sitting on tarmacs for no particular reason!

The first evening I was taken out by Josh to a great little pub that served local food and local beer. As my interest in these topics is high, I enjoyed the evening, and naturally, the taste of the local beers. It was then an early night as the effects of a long flight from Australia were finally taking hold. more...

ROLF'S DIARY
Birmingham Alabama

Wednesday 21st October, 2009


I was picked up in the afternoon by Blake, one of our wine representatives from The Wine Source in Alabama. A welcome sight after numerous delays coming from New York and Charlotte. Flying into Birmingham Alabama, I was surprised at how hilly and spaced out the town was. I was taken to a new, very modern hotel called the 'A Loft' which is on the edge of town. A quick run up to the room, bag drop, and then off to meet the team at 'Satterfield's', a very swish restaurant in Vestavia Hills. more...


ROLF'S DIARY
Tasting With The Brisbane Wine Market

Wednesday 9th September, 2009


My first trip to visit the Brisbane wine trade was in 1998 with my then agent Curtis Marsh. It seems ironic that that visit took a day and a half and we seemed to cover all the major retailers and restaurants in the short amount of time. My trip in September 2009 was entered into with great excitement as I had heard how much the market had changed in the last decade. more...
