Peter Schell and Magali Gely have had a home in the Barossa Valley for over twenty years and hold a strong commitment to and passion for the Barossa.  They also have a strong French connection, both physically and philosophically.

Magali's family, who up until recently were vignerons with a long lineage in Lunel, near Montpellier, still live in south west France, and over the last ten years Peter has worked six French vintages, in Provence, the Languedoc, Bordeaux and Burgundy. Time spent in the south of France has fuelled their interest in making unique, hand crafted wines with personality, which are generous and honest expressions of the varieties and their provenance.

Grapes are sourced from a group of dedicated growers in both the Barossa and Eden Valleys, taking advantage of the great diversity of the soils and meso-climates of the Barossa to create wines with balance, character, depth of flavour and Barossan generosity.

Spinifex’s Tempranillo comes from a vineyard in the Vine Vale sub-region of the Barossa Valley, on a site owned by Collin and Maggie Beer. Growing in sand over hard clay and influenced by the cool nocturnal gully winds that funnel down from the Barossa Ranges, it’s a site that brings dried herb, ripe cherry and cola notes as well as fresh tannins.
 
This was hand-picked early to lock in freshness, the fruit was de-stemmed but not crushed, then underwent indigenous yeast fermentation in a small open fermenter. Pressed after eight days, the young wine was allowed to mature on its lees for 10 months in old French oak puncheons (500-litre) prior to racking and bottling. Arguably Australia’s finest example of this grape at a fabulous price.
