Sustainability is a long-held philosophy for our Barossa wine and grape growers. Environmental sustainability comes to mind instantly for a wine region…

Welcome to the year 2021; The Year of South Australian Wine.
"I knew him as someone always willing to learn; to better himself and better his vineyard. To hear, take in and evaluate new technology ideas or other viticultural tools… but more than that, he was willing to put his hand up and be part of groups and committees; attend meetings and seminars – not only for his own benefit, but to participate and help the greater Barossa community.”
But for the Barossa community, it is more than that. We recognise the sustainability of the community is paramount to the long-term success of our wine industry. To support the local community in a meaningful way, the Barossa Wine Auction allocates a portion of money raised to a local Charity.
In 2021 we have selected a very worthy cause as the recipients of this year’s wine auction, the BGWA (Barossa Grape & Wine Association) Well-being Fund; A charity, administered by Foundation Barossa, designed to provide Mental Health First Aid training for our wine and grape growers.

The first commercial wine in Australia to be bottled under the Stelvin screw-cap seal was the 1977 @pewseyvalevineyards Riesling.
@yalumbawine Production Director, Peter Wall, is widely credited for driving the development of the Stelvin closure for Australian wines, having worked with French manufacturing firm Le Bouchage Mecanique from the 1960s on an alternative sealing system for wine bottles.
While consumer resistance saw a return to cork in the 1980s, improvements in quality and a subsequent resurgence in the 2000s have seen sales of wines sealed under screw-cap now far outnumber those under cork.

and the last large-scale gathering for many of us in 2020.
As we look back on Barossa. Our Story, a Dinner we can't wait to share with you what's next...

"Rockford Wines - Barossa Valley" by @draganraocaj
Yes, all Rockford's grapes moved by hand from the truck into the winery - through this tiny window shown here. Now that's dedication to the craft 😍
*local tip* Visit Rockford Cellar Door during vintage and you might just be lucky enough to see the winery crew in action. It all happens right there in the courtyard!
