About the Winery
Rockford Wines is a wine producer based in Australia’s Barossa Valley. The winery was founded in the early 1980s by Robert O’Callaghan, with the inaugural vintage released in 1984.
Rockford works with several independent growers across the Barossa, including vineyards in Kalimna, Ebenezer, Moppa Springs, Eden Valley and central Barossa. Many vines are planted on their own rootstocks, with some up to 130 years old.
Winemaking at Rockford is largely traditional, using basket presses, open-topped slate fermenters and historic equipment.
