All that he has experienced is reflected in the Rockford winemaking principles; Robert says \u201cQuality winemaking is a skilled craft that consumes a very large part of one\u2019s life, so it must give you joy. That joy is extended if the maker can sell the wine directly to those who drink it for their pleasure.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In 1971 Robert purchased an 1850\u2019s stone settler\u2019s cottage and outbuildings on five acres of land in the village of Krondorf, which sits in the shadow of the Barossa Ranges, in the heart of the Barossa Valley.\u00a0 The courtyard shaped winery which grew from this was built in the same style and from the same materials as the original buildings. The vintage shed is equipped with plant from the pioneer era, collected when they were discarded by other Australian wineries as they modernised.\u00a0 This allows Rockford to carry on the traditional Australian winemaking techniques, but more importantly the winery is the same scale, age and pace as their growers\u2019 vineyards.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>To Robert, the winery is not just a building but a large piece of sculpture with Barossa wine running through its veins. Robert says \u201cWine is crafted, not created.\u00a0 The skill is to capture and enhance the fleeting flavours that grapes give from their variety and extract from the earth,\u00a0then bottle these as a living record of the vintage they represent.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>We are grateful to have Rocky\u2019s company, and look forward to hearing his stories. We hope you can join us.
