Don’t miss this chance to taste rare wines from our personal cellar!

We’re holding special tastings at cellar door during the Barossa Vintage Festival. This festival has been running for 70 years and in 2017 we are celebrating the 25th vintage for Liebichwein.

Select vintages from 1999 through to 2008 will be open every day for wine tasting flights.

Retrospective Reds include The Darkie Shiraz, The Lofty Cabernet Sauvignon and Potter’s Merlot.

Forgotten Fortifieds include single varietal blends, some over 20 years old.

Wednesday 19th to Sunday 23rd April 2017 between 11am-5pm.

Barossa Vintage Festival 2015 Wrap Up

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!

Personalised Wine Tastings

Requests have been flowing in to host wine clubs and local sporting clubs for specialised private tastings in the barrel shed. The rare aged fortifieds are star attractions! Ron really enjoys the chance to?talk to consumers and show off his range of wines. He is happy to travel to where you are, should you wish to hold a tasting at work, a special function or a fundraiser event. In May we hosted a group of 30 people for an informal fortified workshop. Another special tasting is booked in August when we will travel to Western Victoria to provide a?taste of Liebichwein for the residents of the Tabor area.
