Last year I spoke with an interesting gentleman about our Old Vine Shiraz vineyard which is located in between the winery and the neighboring church. The gentleman, who turned out to be a very well known South Australia illustrator, Mr David James Stokes, was putting together a special exhibition of various old vines from the Barossa Valley.
We happily agreed to have one of our old vines illustrated and displayed in an exhibition which was held on Sunday the 5th December 2010 at the National Wine Centre.
It is a gorgeous illustration which has wonderful personality! As it was drawn in the early months of spring David has been able to capture the new sprigs of life which are beginning to form.
