Description In 1962 Alfred Liebich’s love of fishing led him from Barossa, where his family settled in 1852, to the Murray River. His ‘left bank’ vineyards produce plush Petite Sirah (aka Durif) brimming with blueberry, black cherry and spice. This debut vintage has already scooped Gold! "Dark, opaque red with ruby reflections. Generous nose, full of blackcurrant and black cherry aromas. On the palate, moderate tannins, freshness and crisp, clean fruit. Youthful and accessible." (International Challenge Gilbert & Gaillard).
The South Australian wine industry is responsible for more than half the production of all Australian wine. South Australia is a vast area with a great diversity in geography, allowing the state to produce a wide range of grape varieties from cool-climate Riesling in the Clare Valley to big, full-bodied Shiraz of the Barossa Valley. Some of Australia's most famous wines like Penfolds Grange, Jacob's Creek, Yalumba and Henschke Hill of Grace are produced here.
