The Eden Valley is renowned for its floral talc scented Rieslings and vibrant fruit pure Shiraz. Cool climate Chardonnay also performs well as does Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.

CHATEAU TANUNDA
This historic chateau was built in the 1880’s and is home to some of the earliest vine plantings circa 1840. It was at Château Tanunda that several of Australia’s most illustrious winemakers worked, Max Schubert, Jack Mann and Bill Seppelt, to name a few. Since 1998 it has been a family owned business, and it was the Gerber family that restored the chateau to its former glory. The chateau boasts 250 acres, in prime locations throughout the Barossa Valley and produces a diverse range of 25 wines from sparkling to full-bodied reds through to light whites and fuller richer Chardonnays, from over a dozen different grape varieties.
