The Barossa Valley, with its strong German heritage, is a place full of character. The region has a long history of making full-body reds, robust whites and fortified wine. Located 70km north of Adelaide, the Barossa Valley has a unique beauty of its own.

Since 1952, the Schild family have lived and worked in the Southern Barossa. Ben and Alma Schild moved from harsh Murray Mallee country (40km west of the Victorian border), purchasing their first vineyard, nestled at the foothills of the Barossa Ranges and overlooking Rowland Flat, where today the original homestead still stands.
