I came here with my partner just yesterday for some wine tasting. I'd never been to any cellar…read moredoors before so this was a new experience for me, I wasn't disappointed either. The lady who greeted us, sat us straight down and started pouring us nips of moscato to try which she would talk about as we tasted. beautiful frizzante style, very light and summery, I recommend the Rosa version which is slightly less sweet. Of course Grant Burge is very good for Shiraz, The Barossa in general is big on this grape variety. We tried about 7 styles, generally at the end you are expected to buy a bottle, you would be crazy not to really unless you're on some sort of wine tour and you're stupidly drunk already. Very very nice indeed.

We toured thirteen Barossa Valley wineries over two and a half days. None served bad wine. I…read morerated them on the quality of the wines, the breadth of selection, the setting of the winery (outside views and/or inside decor), and service. Note that sometimes service can be a function of how busy they were. This winery rated 2nd of the 13. On a five point scale, they were: Wine Quality - 5 Wine Selection - 5 Setting - 4 Service - 5 They have a beautiful setting and some great wines. In particular I liked their single vineyard Riesling - Thorn, and their single vineyard SavBlanc - Kraft. I didn't buy any since they are distributed well in the US, although I doubt I'll get the single vineyard stuff outside Australia.

Beautiful grounds, fantastic staff…read more Another stop on my trailhopper tour of the Barossa Valley. Stepping onto the beautiful property you knew this was going to be a great stop. I was offered a variety of tasting options, but of course I went with the wine and chocolate pairing. Two of my favorite things. Yeah. The paired chocolates came from a local German chocolatier- Cuvée. It's mid morning so let's start with bubbles. 2021 Dry Rosé $20AU was accompanied by Bianco 35%. The very light Grenache had simply the perfect hint of strawberries. Delicate. With the white chocolate melting on your tongue, it was a devine strawberry and cream sensation. 2021 Garden of Eden Shiraz $25AU was paired with Soleo 42%. Had a slightly dry finish, light tannins, and my favorite mix of cherry and blackberry. The milk chocolate was still a rich flavor with a hint of caramel. 2019 Blockhead Shiraz Grenache $26AU with Amphora 65%. This wine was first released in 2017 and is designed to be drink now wine. Very food friendly. Plum and red berries with a spicy finish. Definitely needed the bold blend of this chocolate. Light fruit up front finishing with layers of natural acidity. 2020 Butchers Cart Shiraz $35AU accompanied Grand Cru 75%. This lush velvet wine had a hint of American Oak. Blackberry, plum, and black pepper. The chocolate had cherry and plum notes. I love dark chocolate, so this was my favorite. I will totally return they have SO many other Shiraz to taste my way through. On a beautiful day I recommend having your tasting on the patio.

One of the things that stands out with this winery is that it happens to have some of the oldest…read morevines in the Barossa, not that you could probably work it out simply by driving through. Then again, I'm not much of an expert in the age of plants. The cellar door is rather small, but they do have a nice area outside where you can sit and enjoy some wine. In fact, the wine itself isn't all that bad either. While it is close to Tanunda, it is still a bit of a hike from the town, but then again you pretty much need a car to get anywhere in the Barossa.

This was the first winery I visited years ago that actually gave me palletable information on the…read moreins and outs of the winery's various vintages and complexities. It is such a heaving, complex beast, the winery, if you ever get a chance to check out the guts of one on your travels. Everything from planting, protecting, feeding and nurturing (I'm not kidding, Turkey Flat sprayed sunscreen on their vines last vintage! Who woulda thunk it!?) the vines, to the picking, producing, fermenting, bottling, marketing etc etc etc, there are a LOT of moving parts! And to try and understand them is why some people spend years at university learning the craft. However, most wineries won't give you all of their dirty little secrets (alright, some of them might, but they don't want to ruin their chance of a sale so it's unlikely!) that most of the winery workers know. Turkey Flat is the exception for me here. Not that there were any dirty little secrets to be told this time around, but the cellar door attendant, despite only doing 1 day a week, was extremely knowledgable about all of the wines and provided us with some great info on the various vintages, grapes and also general goings on in the area, following the Annual Barossa Vintage Festival which was held last weekend. Go check out the website for more info on the wines, and do yourself a favour and pop in here while you're up in the BV. It's a worthwhile experience and you will taste some truly magic wines.

Barossa Gourmet Weekend saw us buying a ticket to their lunch and tasting event…read more Recommended by a close friend that this is the place one comes for fortified liquid gold, I truly was looking forward to visiting this place. It is a quaint little winery south of the famous Barossa Valley. Family owned and run by Janet and Ron Liebich for the past few decades, this clearly is held together by love spanning three generations and counting. Liebich Wein literally means "Love I Wine" in German for the trivia enthusiasts. Greeted by a French backpacker who is helping out the family, we were encouraged to try their wines and fortifieds while they put on the finishing touches to the lunch. The fortified wines I had was delicious, starting from young to old vintages. I learnt that you can come and purchase fortified in bulk for a very very reasonable price. For example, 1 litre of muscat is only $10.00, $7.50 for the Ruby Grenache. Wines starting from $15.00 a bottle! I can't believe how awesome this place is for value. Moving on to our lunch, we were ushered into their barrel room. We were surrounded by walls of wine barrels which gave an otherwise cold feel to this tin shed. The place was run very casually to the point where the adjective unorganised might pop up more than once. We found it amusing and charming. Foodwise, I had the pork and rabbit brawn, a falafel and a vego pattie, while the girls who ate meat had the lamb kibbi and beef and pork sausage roll. All was presented on a wooden platter with our flight of wines. It was all lovely, but didn't hit the spot on a cold spring afternoon. I guess we were hoping for more hearty offerings. Nevermind, the generous wines and tastings more than made up for it. We left slightly tipsey and me, with a rare bottle of semillion. Off to our next destination!

From the owner: Liebichwein is a hidden gem tucked away at the bottom of the scenic Barossa ranges. Over the years,…read moreRon has built up a reputation for bold fruit-driven red wines and is one of the Barossa Valley’s best producers of fortified wines. Taste a selection of fortifieds for maturing in your own barrel or for drinking as a premium aged blend. Celebrate over 100 years of Liebich family winemaking and share their passion for wine!
