Spinifex Wines from the Barossa – See why the experts are raving!
Spinifex has every wine writer and enthusiast raving and has catapulted them into the league of Barossan cult producers in a remarkably short time. They are a member of the coveted wine group, Artisans of the Barossa. Spinifex were finalists for Winemaker of the Year in Gourmet Traveller Wine and named Winery of the Year in The Penguin Good Australian Wine Guide 2009. Attending seminar with winemaker, Pete Schell last month and tasting the new Spinifex releases, confirmed all the excitement.
Peter is a very modest winemaker but his wines are simply outstanding –you just have to try them! Spinifex Wines are often hard to come by outside of top notch restaurants so now is your chance to join the cult!
You can read more about Spinifex and their range of wines in our Wine of the Month.
