Our Review
The ambition of the Swiss tech entrepreneurial Auchli family, 1837 Barossa commemorates the date on which Colonel William Light named the Barossa. Red wines hail exclusively from the estate near Lyndoch, while whites are sourced from Eden Valley growers. Viticulture is overseen by 5th-generation grower Michael Heinrich, with a philosophy of minimal chemical input. The spectacular estate offers accommodation in its recently refurbished Barossa Manor, including a restaurant, cellar door and seminar centre. Exports to Europe. -TYSON STELZER
