Shiraz Basket Press 2019 - Rockford

The Barossa Valley north of the city of Adelaide represents the heart of Australian viticulture and the continent's most famous growing region. The roots — both historically and literally — go back to the middle of the 19th century. The glory of the valley is large Shiraz vines dating back to 1860, grown in bush form and with very small but all the more concentrated yields of just around 15 hl/ha. In this spirit, the Rockford winery also emphasizes the romance of the good old days with antique tools, but the wines are fully in line with the taste of the time in their characterful, unadulterated style. Rockford s Basket Press Shiraz is considered Australia's true cult wine. As one of the top ten icons of old vines, it shows the incomparable spice and typicity of the region as a highly expressive wine of character. Also great storage potential.
