About This Wine

Mountadam Vineyards is a family owned and operated winery, located at 550 metres above sea level. Our vineyards are some of the highest in the Barossa region. All wines are crafted using 100% Estate grown fruit. On release the wine is a rich ruby colour with a vibrant purple hue. The wine has aromas of fresh dark berry fruits, spice and tobacco. Fragrant lashings of blackcurrant with bright, fresh red fruits and blackberries intertwined with layers of spice and cassis on the palate. This wine has been crafted to be enjoyed upon release but will reward careful cellaring up to and possibly beyond 2028. Harvest commenced in mid-April. All parcels of fruit were harvested within a two-week period and fermented in 8 tonne parcels. Parcels were kept on skins for 14 days prior to pressing. The wine was matured in 3-year-old and older French oak barriques for 12 months. Minimal filtration was used in the production of this wine.

Barossa Valley Wine

The Barossa Valley wine region has historically and currently still is one of Australia's most prestigious premium wine producing regions. Located just 60km north east of Adelaide city centre, the climate there is very hot and dry which is perfect for the big bold reds the area is famous for.

A straight Shiraz is what Barossa is most well known for, however Rhone blends, such as Shiraz Cabernet are also very popular. While much less prevalent, white wines (Chardonnay, Riesling, Semillon) are planted on the higher altitude hillsides where the ocean breeze cools temperatures down to a level suitable for producing these varieties as well.

Some of Australia's earliest Shiraz plantings can be found here dating as far back as the 1850's. While not always a guarantee of quality, it might be worth seeking out and trying one of the region's "old vine shiraz" if you haven't yet.
