Iconic, Powerful, and Timeless - The Benchmark Barossa Shiraz

Rockford Basket Press Shiraz 2022 stands as one of Australia’s most revered wines, a symbol of tradition, craftsmanship, and Barossa heritage. Crafted from old-vine Shiraz sourced from grower families with generations of history, this flagship release represents everything that makes Rockford legendary. Basket-pressed, open-fermented, and matured in seasoned oak, it delivers depth, balance, and unmistakable soul.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Concentrated dark fruits, plum, and blackberry layered with spice, cedar, and hints of cocoa.
Palate: Full-bodied and rich yet perfectly poised, opulent black fruit, dark chocolate, and savoury spice supported by fine-grained tannins.
Finish: Long, powerful, and elegant with classic Barossa warmth and lingering complexity.

Food Pairing / Serving Suggestions

Perfect alongside roast beef, venison, lamb shanks, or truffled mushroom dishes. Serve decanted to reveal its full aromatic and textural beauty.

About the Winery

Founded by Robert O’Callaghan in 1984, Rockford Wines is synonymous with Barossa tradition. Using heritage equipment and old-vine fruit, Rockford remains a beacon for hand-crafted Australian winemaking. Every bottle tells a story of community, patience, and respect for the land and none more so than the Basket Press Shiraz, the estate’s most sought-after release.

Cellaring Potential

Built for the long haul, enjoy now for its youthful energy or cellar gracefully until 2050 for peak maturity and complexity.
