The family Grenache block on Thiele Road in Bethany remains one of Jason’s favourite blocks. The first vintage of the Thiele Road Grenache was made by Jason Schwarz in 2002 and celebrates his love of this diverse variety. The gnarled, old vines were planted in 1941 and they produce fantastic fruit.

The Nitschke Road Shiraz block was planted by my mother and father in 1968 in Bethany near the base of the Eastern Barossa Range. The vineyard is still pruned and picked by hand and the soils of loam over brown and red clays results in a wine of considerable concentration and drive.
Rich, opulent fruit is the reoccurring theme with this vineyard and it always seems to show great balance and texture year in, year out.
The Nitschke Block Shiraz was the first wine made by Jason Schwarz back in 2001.

Smells of Provence herbs, sea spray, a doughy thread, yellow peaches, and orchard fruits. On the palate, it builds with nuance rather than dominance. Think yellow apples, peaches, citrus fruits and zest, a stony minerality come through, alongside a subtle note of wild fennel. Hand picked, wild yeast, time on skins 10 hours.
Sub-region: Bethany

An unfussy, medium bodied expression of Grenache here. A lot of raspberries up front on the nose, both fresh as well as jelly Snakes/raspberry frogs, Turkish Delight, and potpourri/dried flowers.

Wonderfully complex and engaging, the bouquet shows dark berry, bay leaf, cured meat and toasted almond notes, leading to a gorgeously supple palate that's expansive and persistent. Well supported by refined texture and fine-grained tannins, finishing long and structured.

We have made a limited number of The Schiller Shiraz Magnums available.
The Schiller Shiraz is a wine not only rich in flavour but rich in history too. The fruit sourced for this wine comes from the sixth-generation Schiller Family vineyard at Hallett Valley in the Barossa.
After a last-minute reprieve from the bulldozers, the 400 Shiraz vines planted by Carl August Otto Schiller in 1881 are something to be treasured.
** Gift box available for purchase, sold separately **
The 2025 Rosé - a down the line, light, refreshing and delicious bone-dry rosé here with everything once could want from the style. Gently fruited with blood oranges, apricot, Aperol, cloves and balance from bittering quinine/citrus rind elements.
63% Grenache | 37% Mataro
