Barossa Valley
www.chateautanunda.com
This is one of the most historically significant winery buildings in the Barossa Valley, built from bluestone quarried at nearby Bethany in the late 1880s. It has been restored by the Geber family and a new basket-press winery installed. Chateau Tanunda owns almost 100 ha of vineyards in Bethany, Eden Valley, Tanunda and Vine Vale, with additional fruit sourced from a group of 30 growers, including descendants of the Barossa’s original settlers, covering the panoply of Barossan subregions. The wines are made from hand-picked grapes, basket-pressed, and are neither fined nor filtered. There is an emphasis on single-vineyard and single-subregion wines under the Terroirs of the Barossa label. The grand building houses the cellar door and Barossa Small Winemakers Centre, offering wines made by boutique winemakers. The Chateau hosts conferences, conventions and weddings, catering for groups of up to 500, and there is a competition-standard croquet lawn with picturesque valley views. The acclaimed charity Masters Cricket match played biennially on the CCG (Chateau Cricket Ground) sees many of the world’s greats grace its stage. Exports to the UK, Germany Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and China.
