Description

Surrounded by the legacy of Barossa winemaking pioneers, one being their ‘Old Man’ David Wardlaw, for the boys, living in the wine industry was inevitable. Brothers at War came from humble beginnings. Commencing in 2013 with a tonne of Shiraz, the Brothers’ vision started as nothing more than a fun way for two boys in their twenties to occupy a weekend. In 2014, they added a parcel of Cabernet, and with that, their “Fist Fight” Shiraz and “I’m Always Right” Cabernet were born.

Picking up some other guys along the way, such as their grape grower Chris Alderton, the Brothers' vision has organically grown into a shared passion to create world-class wines from small parcels of exceptional fruit. Now in their thirties, and as fathers themselves, the Brothers are taking themselves a little more seriously after a wealth of award-winning wines and accolades under their belt. Together, this group of family and friends, are continuing to stake their rightful claim in wine, while keeping a family tradition alive (not without a few fist fights here and there).

Review

"Classic aromas of freshly squeezed lime juice, Bickford's lime cordial, and Christmas lily. Hints of soft spice, clotted cream, and crushed quartz enter the fray also. Quite expansive and mouth-filling on the palate, perhaps lacking the sizzle of some of the top 2021s, but the drinkability factor is high here." Dave Brookes (Halliday Wine Companion)

Tasting Profile
nose

The fruitier of our two Rieslings, their 2021 Grape Grower Riesling showcases lifted floral notes with intense lemon and lime aromatics

palate

On the palate, green apples and pears are vibrant, accompanied by a tight mineral line. This textural Riesling is well balanced with crisp natural acidity, typical of the exceptional Rieslings of this region.
