Zeppelin Big Bertha Barossa Valley Shiraz 2016

Zeppelin was created by Artisan of the Barossa winemakers Corey Ryan and Kym Teusner, with a view to crafting hearty wines exhibiting a ample style and considerable personality. Labelled in commemoration of the region’s founding German heritage, the brand was named in honour of Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, an innovator, brave and progressive entrepreneur who thought big, really big and was not afraid to risk it all. The influence of the German migrants that settled the Barossa Valley is seen today in a rich and diverse culture enjoyed by a myriad of family wineries whose names proudly proclaim their heritage.

Hemera Estate Barossa Valley Shiraz 2014

The 2014 Vintage saw the hottest summer recorded in South Australia. With 13 days reaching 40 degrees or above and normally followed by strong winds at night. This resulted in lower crops than the average and early ripening across most varieties. After the heat, a rain event caused the most February rain for 30 years, providing beneficial moisture and berry flavour to develop alongside sugar formation. The resultant wines are abundant in fruit with elegant mouth-feel.

Selected parcels of some of the best fruit were earmarked early on for this Shiraz. Sourced both from our own Estate blocks as well as very special local growers these vineyards showcase the a seamless and fine blend of Shiraz in the trademark Hemera Estate elegant house style.

Once the grapes have been identified to be of optimum ripeness the parcels are brought into the winery where they are gently crushed into the open top fermenters. After pressing, the free-run and pressed wine are combined based on taste before being transferred into a combination of new and seasoned French and American oak barrels for 18 months of maturation. Each parcel is kept separate throughout matura- tion with careful barrel selection taking place before the final wine is blended.

Einzellage 100 Year Old Vine Valley Floor Barossa Valley Grenache 2017

Sourced From One Of Barossa Valleys Most Revered Growers from a single vineyard located on the outskirts of Tanunda on the Valley Floor from a vineyard which just celebrated its 100th birthday. Fruit was picked in early hours of morning when temperatures were at their lowest for the day to ensure fruit remained crisp whilst being transported to winery. The grapes were destalked and placed uncrushed into small stainless steel open top fermenters. Cultured yeast was used to start fermentation and the tanks were hand plunged spending 7 days on skins at 26 degrees. The skins we gently pressed and we kept the wine in tank to create a virgin style of Grenache to retain fleshy fruit flavours then bottled with minimal filtration and no fining.
