Barossa - which encompasses both Barossa and Eden Valleys - is one of Australia's most historic regions with plenty of old vine vineyard sites and more than 175 years of grape growing and winemaking history. It is also home to Australia's largest plantings of old ungrafted vines. Whilst Eden is well known for its Riesling and Viognier and Barossa is known for its Shiraz and Grenache - there is a wealth of other grape varieties to explore in Barossa. For whites, Semillon, Grenache Gris, Roussanne to Clairette - and Cinsault, Mourvedre, Nero d'Avola, Touriga Nacional and Cabernet Sauvignon for reds. Sample 13 wines from this famous region selected by Rose from leading Barossa producers. The wines will be accompanied by a selection of artisan cheeses. No prior knowledge required - just a love of Australian wine.
