This is Grange country, a revered pocket of Barossa Valley vineyards about 4 kilometres north of Nuriootpa. Here we see exceptional vines that produce great regional expression of fruit character, with properties tightly held for several generations.
This is the case here, where the establishment and development of this vineyard has passed from father to son over many years, building their reputation as premium Barossa growers. A lifetime of dedication has yielded fantastic results, with these grapes chosen for premium wines for labels such as Glaetzer, Small Gully Wines and The Mysterious Mr Black, and flagships such as Glaetzer Bishop and E&E Black Pepper.
Penfold's famous Kalimna vineyard is across the road, with its grapes used in various Penfolds wines, including Grange, Bin 707, RWT, St Henri, and Bin 28, as well as many Special Bin wines (Block 42 single vineyard wines and 1962 Penfolds Bin 60A).
Soils are deep and sandy to sandy loams and heavy, red-brown clays. Blocks are hand pruned and harvested including half century-old vines. Planted to Shiraz and Cabernet (including Shiraz planted in 1950's from Penfold's Grange vineyard at Magill).
Approximately 16.2Ha of cropping land which is currently share farmed and 6.33Ha of scrub.
A substantial four-bedroom home is at the centre of the property, which could also serve as a corporate headquarters, accommodation or cellar door facility subject to consents. Built in 1997, the solid brick home has a bluestone facade with rendered quoins, a wrap-around bull-nose verandah, and many heritage-style features in keeping with a country homestead.
There are three wings of the home with the kitchen and living areas central to the floor plan. The timber kitchen has ample storage and bench space including a breakfast bar and features leadlight glass, a wall oven and Miele dishwasher. It overlooks two family areas including a tiled dining room on one side and a carpeted lounge with curved bay window.
A separate formal lounge is adjacent the entry hallway with leadlight front timber entry door.
The large master bedroom has a spacious walk-in robe and an ensuite with big corner spa bath, shower and vanity all in neutral tones. A three-stage family bathroom serves the three bedrooms at the other end of the house. Ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning throughout.
The home overlooks a cleared paddock and a row of blue gums which could make for a majestic entry(twin).
The house runs entirely on rainwater with 50,000 gallon tank and 3 x 7,000 gallon tanks at rear. Solar has been installed with 24 panels working to save power costs.
At the rear of the home a pitched roof pergola is one of several entertaining spaces.
Another fully enclosed outdoor zone has been created in a detached outbuilding with paved floor, sliding PVC outdoor screens, magnificent pizza oven and spacious bathroom facilities. It is well suited for use as a stand-alone function area or cellar door.
Set amid the natural bushland flanking the vines is the family's favourite place to gather and celebrate, affectionately known as the "BBQ Shed" and the "Wood Shed". The peace of country life is broken only by laughter and stories, with a tendency to enjoy food, wine and a slower pace well into the small hours.
Extensive irrigation and water management with 8mg BIL and ancillary equipment shedding. Full details of vines, varieties, management and tonnages available on request.
This is a rare offering with great versatility for a range of buyers, so inspect and plan your strategy. You may have to wait a few more generations for another chance at this. Discuss your intentions with selling agent, CJ Setlhong, and be rewarded with quality yields made possible by meticulous management.
