Our Review
This is one of the most historically significant winery buildings in the Barossa Valley, built from bluestone quarried in the late 1880s and restored by the Geber family some 120 years later. Château Tanunda owns almost 100ha of vineyards in Bethany, Eden Valley, Tanunda and Vine Vale, including an impressive collection of old vines aged 50–150 years old. Additional fruit is sourced from a group of 30 growers covering the panoply of Barossa districts. The premium wines are typically hand picked, basket pressed and neither fined nor filtered. The focus here is on old-vine wines, as well as single-district and single-vineyard wines under the Terroirs of the Barossa and The Château labels respectively. A second cellar door has opened in the Rocks, Sydney. -JAMES HALLIDAY
