Peter Atyeo
Roennfeldt Road Vineyard
First Planted: 1890
Vine age: 120-130 years
Old Vine charter: Centenarian Vines
Variety: Shiraz
This vineyard is located just behind the small parish village of Marananga, in Northern Barossa. It lies in a small sloping gully with underlying soils of hard clays mixed with deep alluvial loams. Orientation is north-south, where Peter utilizes a sprawled canopy for protection against the harsh westerly afternoon sun.
This, in combination with the red-brown earth soil, gives rises to a style that showcases fruit and colour intensity. The combination of the soil, site and sheer age of the vines, produce and a depth of concentration that consistently produces a luscious full-bodied wine.
“Give it all you’ve got, and the rest will follow”
