In 1998 three brothers purchased a 104Ha property in the Barossa
Ranges (Eden Valley GI) for the purpose of establishing a
vineyard. The property is on the corner of Abbaston Road and
Springton Road, Mt Crawford.
The area has an average annual rainfall of 700mm and the
second coldest average winter temperature in South Australia.
The average elevation is 450m above sea level and most of the
vineyard has a northerly aspect. The soils are rich in minerals
and organics, which enables us to grow some of the best quality
wine grapes in Australia.
Our name Blue Rock Wines comes from Bluerock corner which
borders our vineyard and was the site of a large bluestone mine
which supplied stone for many of Adelaide’s older buildings
