About Watunga Road Vineyard
Located in Koonunga on the flat floor of the Barossa Valley, this 12-hectare vineyard has old bush vine Grenache (planted mid-1970s) and Shiraz planted in 1976/77 and 1998/99.
New plantings in spring 2016 included Grenache to replace natural losses of old vines and a new Shiraz block. Drip irrigation was installed in 2015 to insure against drought in this warm, arid zone and to improve general soil health. However, water is used sparingly and strictly according to seasonal need, as well as availability of this precious resource.
Watunga Road Vineyard
Watunga Road Vineyard has the classic Barossa soil of deep red-brown loam over clay. The vineyard is hand pruned and hand harvested and a range of biodynamic practices are used to enhance premium management techniques. Biodynamic fertilisers, green manure crops and encouragement of beneficial insects are all part of our commitment to long-term sustainability of Australia’s oldest and most revered wine region.
