Tasting Notes

This wine faithfully reflects the contribution made by the Sibley and Kalleske families to Rockford and the Barossa. Their knowledge, tenacity and commitment to the land ensure Semillon - a pioneer Barossa variety - has a viable future. Because the fruit is hand-picked, we can select bunches at different stages of ripeness. The early-picked fruit adds acidity while the later-season fruit contributes riper, fruitier components. The wine matured in barrel and the combination of different sized oak casks, when finally blended, come together to make a complex, textured, and mouth-filling wine.
