Barossa is no longer just about the big in-your-face fruit and body. What I particularly liked was the acidity and minerality - perfect for food - with a nice graphitey texture. I'm salivating again at the memory of it! I thought this was fabulous Lar, a true terroir wine, which seems to be the direction now from the better wine-makers in the region.

Check out Rockford wines if you can, a definite highlight of the area. did you have a bad Barossa experience previously? Check out Rockford wines if you can, a definite highlight of the area.
