Rockford Basket Press Shiraz - a slice of Australian Wine History

Robert O’Callaghan’s iconic Basket PressShiraz is produced in tiny quantities from old dry grown Barossa vineyards that were probably planted by Silesian immigrants fleeing religious persecution in Europe in the late 1800’s. 
Over the next 100 years or so, their descendents toiled the vines, each generation preserving this rich heritage for the subsequent generation. It is then a matter of honour and pride to hand this unique inheritance on to them, as the next link in the chain

When you drink a bottle of Basket Press you are enjoying a slice of Australian wine history. Limited stocks are available at the Australian Wine Centre.
