There's Magic At Metala»
Right around the time that Frank Potts was planting his nascent Bleasdale Vineyards during the 1850s, an eccentric Prussian named Herman Daenke established a homestead along the banks of Bremer River, which he called Metala. The site was planted to viticulture by Arthur Formby in 1891 and became one of Langhorne Creek's most productive vineyards, it continues to supply fruit for a number of prestigious national brands. Legendary winemaker Brian Dolan took the radical step of bottling Metala under its own label in 1959 and won the inaugural Jimmy Watson Trophy in 1962. Two generations later, the brothers Tom and Guy Adams took a similar leap of faith and.. The goodly farms of brothers in arms»

Just three kilometres from Young along Murringo Road, planted to a brisk 500 metres above sea level, Grove Estate was originally sown to vines in 1886, by Croatian settlers who brought cuttings from their farms on the Dalmatian coast. Some of these ancient plantings, emigrated at a time when much of Europe was ruled by Hapsburg emperors, remain productive to this day. Newer blocks were gradually established around these priceless parcels, ostensibly with a view to supplying leading national brands. The quality of fruit became so conspicuous that Grove Estate sanctioned industry celebrities from Ravensworth and Clonakilla to begin bottling under their own.. Quiet consummations of grove estate»

Wolf Blass Grey Label Cabernet 1994 - Buy
Cabernet Sauvignon Langhorne Creek South Australia
A very highly rated year, from a cracker of a growing season across South Australia, especially for the pure varietals. A dry and cool stretch throughout the vintage lead to generously flavoured Cabernet berries which ripened long and perfect in the favourable Indian summer. Typically redolent with peppermint and eucalypt, heady berry fruit aromas, all the trademarks and fragrances which identify good Langhorne Creek Cabernet, the palate is full bodied with exceptional fruit flavours, pearly oak, and a refined finish.

A vintage which provided the Wolf Blass winemakers with top quality fruit, the Cabernet Sauvignon achieved ideal colour and flavour. Sourced exclusively from the best vineyards within the premiere Langhorne Creek region, a distinguished appellation renowned for its unique soils, nourished by the Bremer River's flooding, which drives the development of powerful characters and distinctive flavours within the fruit. After crushing, the Cabernet underwent fermentation in traditional open pots with regular plunging to extract colour and flavour. A portion was also fermented in new American oak barrels. When fermentation was completed the wine was aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels for two years.
Aromas of plum and menthol, cassis and sweet dark foresty fruits, toasty coconut oak, loam and sweet pitch. The virility and plummyness continues along the full length of the palate, matched by the tell-tale menthol and the pearly coco-ribe-like oak. Bits of mint, blueberry and coal, a wine of excellent length and texture, there's real handsome breadth to the palate, it's express-train full bodiedness carries the flavours of dark berry, menthol and toasty savoury oak. Deliverence of pearl-like tannins, this beautifully harmonized purebred of a wine is driven by the rich berry flavours, well integrated wood, and softness all around. A well developed red to savour with flavoursome meat dishes, and high quality cheeeses.

Wolf Blass
The Wolf Blass winery is located at the epicentre of the Australian wine industry, the Barossa Valley and has produced some of Australia's finest wines since 1966

Wolf Blass Wines International was born in 1973 when Wolf started his own business, purchasing a 2.5 acre land holding with an old army shed outside Nuriootpa, at the northern end of the Barossa Valley. John Glaetzer joined the company and from 1974-1976 Wolf Blass Wines won three consecutive Jimmy Watson Trophies, the Black Label generated substantial publicity and hype. From this time onwards growth was impressive with Wolf Blass Yellow Label and Riesling becoming Australia's top selling red and white wine.

Wolf Blass

Wolf Blass AM was born in East Germany in September 1934. After studying and working in the European wine industry for 13 years he migrated to the Barossa Valley, South Australia in 1961 with 100 pounds in his pocket, and the belief that he could "probably add something" to the Australian wine industry. Wolf's first job after arriving in Australia was as Sparkling Wines Manager for Kaiser Stuhl in the Barossa Valley. He also worked as a freelance technical adviser for independent producers.

In 1966 Wolf registered the business name Bilyara, the aboriginal word meaning Eaglehawk. Wolf produced his first vintage of 250 dozen in the same year. Through 1969 to 1973 Wolf worked as Manager and Winemaker for Tolleys where he made his first significant impact on the local wine industry with development of red wine styles. He was considered one of the leaders of the new generation of Australian winemakers, creating individual wines of various styles under his own label.

Exports first started in the mid-1970s, and in 1984 Wolf Blass Wines became a publicly listed company. By the end of 1990, the number of National and International awards totalled an incredible 2,575 comprising 135 trophies, 712 gold medals, 812 silver medals, 869 bronze medals, and 47 diplomas. Wolf's amazing run of show awards outside the Jimmy Watson Trophy includes: Best red wine in Adelaide Show (Montgomery Trophy) in 1978-1983, 1986-1988, Best red wine in Sydney Show 1981-1983 and 1985, and Most successful red wine exhibitor in National Shows 1980-1988
