Loose yourself chatting to producers and tasting wines from over a dozen regions in the cool Adelaide Convention Centre. March is the best time to be in Adelaide with the Fringe Festival in full swing for some evening entertainment.
What we will bring to the Cellar Door Fest?
We will bring something to suit every palate. We are likely to attract sweet tooths for our luscious aged fortifieds made from four grape varieties. People love the 10 year old Semillon which tastes like sticky toffee pudding. Lovers of quality red wines will be in for a treat as we are pouring a special museum 2008 The Darkie Shiraz and 2006 The Lofty Cabernet Sauvignon.?Be the first to taste these?our newly released fortified wine Raisin Apera.
Why we take part?

This event provides an opportunity to meet a wide range of wine lovers all in one convenient location. We?d like to share our passion for food and wine and the amazing lifestyle we are blessed with in South Australia. We have thoroughly enjoyed past events we were involved with.

It was exciting to host another sell-out event as part of Barossa Gourmet Weekend. There really are a lot of sweet tooths around!
Over 40 Guests enjoyed an afternoon master class hosted by Ron Liebich and his daughter Briony who took them?behind the scenes of the world of fortified wine. Ron shared his tips for barrel ageing and how different grape varieties develop while Briony led the sensory experience of matching wines to indulgent desserts.
Matching Fortified with Desserts
Briony works as a Sensory Analyst and provided insights into basic taste interactions and why we love sweet flavours. The desserts were prepared by local chef Kate Harbison using as many local ingredients as possible. The most popular pairing was the Semillon and Cr?me Br?l?e.
Here are the wines and desserts served as complementary pairings:
Classic Semillon
Wine:?????????????????????????? Gorgeous burnt toffee, candied nuts and sticky date pudding flavours
Dessert:????????????????????? Honeycomb Cr?me Br?l?e with Blood Orange Marmalade
Classic Frontignac
Wine:?????????????????????????? Irresistible musk perfume and tropical fruits with caramelised flavours
Dessert:????????????????????? Sticky Walnut Tart with Peach Glaze
Classic Muscat
Wine:?????????????????????????? Alluring dried apricots, candied citrus and luscious honey flavours
Dessert:????????????????????? Dark Chocolate & Apricot Roulade
Grand Tawny
Wine:?????????????????????????? Extremely complex spicy fruitcake with a lingering dry, nutty finish.
Dessert:????????????????????? Chocolate Cream Layered Biscotti with Spiced Quince Jelly and Chocolate Glazed Fig

Grape stomping, street parade, scarecrows, chocolate and wine?indulgence were just some of the variety of activities Liebichwein were involved with over?the five days of the Barossa Vintage Festival?held in April 2015.
Cellar Door was run off its feet with people booking in for the Fortified and Chocolate Experience. Visitors enjoyed a journey of flavour?through four varieties of premium fortified wines ranging from two to twenty years old. Wines were matched to four homemade chocolate truffles. A rare treat!
Once again we?entered a float in the?famous Barossa Festival Parade, the?longest street parade in the southern hemisphere.?Our daughter Briony and son-in-law Damian proudly dressed?the winery float?in a ‘Classic Old Barossa’ theme complete with scarecrow (Grandpa “Gus” Braunack) and classic 1960’s beach buggy.

Grape juice was flying as the iconic grape treading event returned for its biennial appearance at the?Festival. Young and old climbed into the bins and eagerly stomped the grapes.?Liebichwein have proudly sponsored this event for 10 years.?Ron is now converting the well-stomped Grenache juice into a smooth young Tawny.

We had a ball hosting another?cheese making workshop?in November 2014,?bigger and better than the first.
Our expert in residence was Kate Harbison who helps out in cellar door. Kate brought along her hand-made Camembert cheeses and explained how she had made them. Then we proceeded to make our own Fetta in a really simple process. Some of the Fetta was concentrated on the day and turned into Haloumi which was later fried as part of the lunch menu.
Our delicious lunch spread included spinach and cheese flaky pastry pie, locally smoked salmon from Lyndoch Butcher on Lebanese bread with capers lemon juice and lettuce. ?Of course we left room for dessert – hazelnut meringue with apricot conserve and cream.
Not forgetting the Liebich wines served during the day to complete this unique food and wine experience.
Who would be keen to attend if we held another one next year?
