All the traditions of the long-running Barosa Vintage Festival were celebrated in April 2019.?We had a ball celebrating a century of Liebich family winemaking heritage in the Barossa Valley.?Winemaking is in Ron’s blood starting with his Grandfather, Benno Liebich, who established a family winery in Rowland Flat in 1919.
The cricket theme for the float was selected given that between Ron, his Uncle “Darkie” and grandfather Benno?they had notched up 100 vintages not out. We rolled out the turf on the back of a truck, set up stumps, donned the whites and rolled the arm over.
We are excited to present this series of special events as an associated event of Tasting Australia 2016.
Enjoy an intimate taste experience based on the concept of terroir. Be taken on a journey of flavour through four varieties of premium fortified wines matched to divine handmade chocolate truffles. Liebichwein?s luscious fortifieds range from two to twenty years old ? a rare treat!
Wines to enjoy are Fortified Frontignac, Muscat, Semillon and Grenache-based Tawny. Bonus taste of a rare family barrel sample.
Please allow 30 minutes anytime between 2-4pm to relax and indulge.
We are excited to be part of this very popular event where the finest South Australian producers will be on show over a whole weekend in Adelaide.
Meet, taste and discover over 180 wine, beer, cider and food producers from every corner of the state. 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?
Being open 6 days a week doesn?t leave a lot of time to venture off the property to spend time in the city. 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.
Liebichwein are excited to be hosting this intimate indulgent treat as part of the 2015 Barossa Gourmet Weekend. Our event will be similar to last year?s sell out?master class.

Event cost is $30 per person, so why not get a group together and book now.
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?
