Outstanding Barossa Valley fortified wine, matured in oak casks for several years to allow the flavours to concentrate and develop complexity. This is a spicy, rich wine with dark fruit and pepper notes.
Rockford Wines’ legacy
Rockford Wines is an icon itself and a relatively new one, established in 1971 by Robert O’Callaghan, who has forged a reputation for preserving winemaking tradition and saving many of the world’s oldest grape vines from being pulled up in the Australian Government’s vine pull schemes of the 1970s and 1980s.
The Rockford vintage shed houses equipment from 50 to 100 years ago, which was discarded by other wineries as modernisation took over.
