Winery Notes - "The Eden Valley sits high in the Barossa ranges, above the floor of the Barossa Valley. This is an area of outstanding natural beauty punctuated by ancient Red Gums with patches of vines hidden amongst undulating grazing land. Exposed reefs of moss-covered metamorphic rock hint at what lies beneath the soil's surface. Vines growing in this shallow rocky soil produce fine flavoured Riesling with a mineral purity that comes from vine roots pushing through cracks in submerged … more

Not available at cellar door, but this outstanding Cabernet in a magnum is perfect for a family luncheon. Made from the Rockford "Home Block", this is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
After being open fermented and basket pressed, the wine is aged in seasoned French oak hogsheads and large vats for three years. This allows the tannins to soften, colours and flavours to consolidate and achieves a deeply varietal wine that is soft and generous.
With a track record of ageing comfortably … more

46% Grenache/44% Mataro/10% Shiraz.
Winery Notes - "Moppa Springs, Ebenezer and Kalimna are some of the driest areas in the Barossa, where green vines grow on one side of the fence and ripened wheat on the other. This hard country is cold, wet, and frosty during pruning, then hot, dry and dusty during harvest. These are the kind of tough conditions that ensure Grenache, Mataro and Shiraz give their best. These varieties and the families who grow them earned the … more

Winery Notes - "Rifle Range Road which runs parallel to Krondorf Road, is in the heart of the Valley Floor and winds its way up the hills to Kaiser Stuhl National Park. The old rifle range is long gone, but the farming land and vineyards that have long been part of the landscape are still there. Because most of our Cabernet Sauvignon comes from vineyards adjacent to Rifle Range Road, it seemed the most appropriate name for this wine which … more

Wnery Notes - "The name Rod & Spur acknowledges the contribution of our growers who spend the cold Barossa winters hand pruning their vines in the traditional rod and spur method. This wine is a return to the great Australian reds of the 1950's and 60's, when Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon blends dominated the premium market. This very Australian blend is not common in other wine regions of the world."

Semillon is one of the original Barossa varieties, one that our growers have maintained for generations. This wine faithfully reflects the contribution made by the Sibley and Kalleske families. Their accumulated knowledge draws on five generations of their families’ commitment to the soil and vines and it is this skill that gives the Barossa its strength, stability and soul.
Over the years we’ve learnt to pick each of our growers’ blocks at varying degrees of ripeness, some blocks will be … more
Blink and you’ll miss Rockford’s Alicante Bouchet – particularly once summer kicks in. It’s to be expected, this fruity-fresh wine that lands somewhere between rosé and chilled red is a classic for good reason. Slightly off dry, expect pink lady apples. raspberry drops and rose petals in every glass.

Winery Notes - "P.S. Marion Tawny is our small contribution to the Barossa's great tradition of producing outstanding aged fortified wines.
Aging some special components for 15-odd years in small oak casks and large vats has encouraged flavours to slowly concentrate into our rich and luscious Barossa tawny. Next time you visit Rockford Cellar Door, look up to the rafters and you’ll see our barrels of tawny quietly enjoying the warm & airy conditions, perfect for its slow aging process. … more
Winery Notes - "Our fortified Shiraz VP is made from the vintage's last fermenter of fully ripened Shiraz fruit from the Mattschoss family vineyard, planted in 1945 in the Siegersdorf region of the Barossa Valley. It is then fortified with a 19 year old wood aged Brandy spirit.
The VP fortifying is an end of vintage celebration and the ritual tends to draw many staff out of the woodwork to inhale some of the most enticing aromas imaginable.

An unusual variety these days, White Frontignac is a fascinatingly fresh yet low-acid variety that captures our romantic side. Prettily aromatic, think lovely lily petals, fresh meyer lemons pulled from the tree, musk sticks and a drop of white nectarine sweetness.
