Gift Of Grampians »
Halls Gap Vineyard was planted 1969, along the steep eastern slopes and parched rocky crags of Grampians Ranges, at the very beginning of a renaissance in Victorian viticulture. Since early establishment in the 1860s by the noble Houses of Seppelt and Bests, the region had earned the most elite peerage, a provenance of extraordinary red wines, bursting with bramble opulence and lined with limousin tannins. The Halls Gap property had long been respected as a venerable supplier to the nation's most illustrious brands. Seppelt and Penfolds called on harvests from Halls Gap for their finest vintages.

Resplendence Of Rockbare»
Rockbare are raiders of precious but wayward vineyards, planted to outdated standards of viticulture, sadly unviable for large scale winemaking. These are however, precisely the nature of site that Rockbare choose to retain. Winemaker Tim Burvill worked at Wynns and Penfolds, where he refined his style alongside some of the best winemakers in the nation's history. Establishing his own label, he embarked upon a secret project to acquire parcels of prodigal Barossa vine. With a backbone of fruit grown to some of the oldest sites in Australia, much of Rockbare's fruit comes off vines a century or more of age. The intense power and complexity of Rockbare's resplendent range of wines are complimented by.. Precious & prodigal parcels of the barossa»

A highly traditional, minimalist approach to winemaking preserves the character of the good vineyard fruit and expression of terroir. Harvests of intensely flavoured Shiraz grapes are treated to an extended maceration, open fermentations, manual pumpovers and basket pressing, followed by maturation in a selection of predominantly older French oak barrels for a year. Big Bertha remains unfined and is bottled with minimal sulphur addition to maximise fruit expression.
Deep red in colour. Expansive nose of fragrant dark cherries and fruit, flowers, pepper and meats. The palate is a showcase of pure unforced Barossa Shiraz, medium to full bodied with dark berry flavours, a seductive fruit sweetness and soft savoury tannins. Offering excellent freshness and superb length, the charming and characterful, fruit driven Bertha is immensely satisfying immediately upon release.

Zeppelin
Zeppelin was created by Artisan of the Barossa winemakers Corey Ryan and Kym Teusner

The wines are made using traditional techniques and a hands off philosophy to create wines full of character. Proud of the region's German heritage, the brand was named in honour of Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, a brave and progressive man who thought big, really big.

Zeppelin

Zeppelin is source fruit from vineyards either owned by Teusner Wines or Sons of Eden, selected for their age, up to 80 years old, low yielding nature and character. Ferdinand is from a vineyard in Greenock, the Barossa Shiraz in Angaston and the Barossa Grenache is sourced from 60 to 80 year old vines between Greenock and Ebenezer.

A very simplistic approach to winemaking is employed, preserving individual vineyard character and making wines with personality. The red wines are made using open fermenters, pumped over by hand, and basket pressed. Predominantly older French oak is used, with Ferdinand up to 50% new, before bottling without fining or filtration. Minimal sulphur added.
