The Story
The Great Terraced vineyard lies on the western boundary of the Seppeltsfield estate and is planted in contoured rows at 220-280 meters above sea level. The majority of the vineyard is gnarly, thick-trunked, bush-vine grenache on red brown soils of slate, quartz, and ironstone. The vineyard was planted in 1855 and re-planted in contoured rows, to follow the natural shape of the land, which commenced in 1958, with original cuttings vigorously selected to ensure the highest quality.
About Seppeltsfield
Producer Story
Seppeltsfield is quite literally one of the most historic estates in all of Australia, established in the Barossa Valley by Joseph and Johanna Seppelt in 1851, just 15 years after the European settlement of South Australia. The Seppelt family maintained ownership of Seppeltsfield until 1985. The company then went into a period of corporate ownership before returning to independent ownership in 2007, under longtime Seppelt winemaker and viticulturist Warren Randall. The estate has become a continuation of the Seppelt family legacy, with a focus on world-class, historic fortified wines as well as affordable, balanced and nuanced classic dry wine styles. Seppeltsfield is dedicated to respecting its significant history alongside an eye to the future: respecting its heritage in a modern world.
