The Berton Vineyard Reserve range brings together wines from regions that due to their distinct climate and soil have excelled at producing particular varieties. Predominantly made from the Barossa Valley this vintage, resulting in a rich, textured and drinkable Shiraz.
A blend of the Eden Valley vineyard and two vineyards in the Barossa Valley, this Reserve Shiraz was fermented in separate parcels, then pressed and left in stainless steel for malolactic fermentation, after which it was racked into barrel for approximately 12 months maturation in new and old French and American oak. The best barrels were then blended and filtered for bottling and a dash of High Eden Shiraz was added for extra complexity and spice.

Shiraz and Barossa still epitomise the best of Australian wine for many wine lovers around the world. This Shiraz comes from the very top terroirs in the Twin Shiraz vineyards – at Ahrens’ Creek and Barossa Ridge in Vine Vale in the warm dry Barossa Valley. This remarkable “twinning” results in a voluptuous yet elegant wines, expressed also in the label painted by Sidney-based artist Charles Billich.
Schild Estate Wines are created with an authenticity and passion that comes from generations of a family who have made their home in the Southern Barossa.
Their Cabernet Sauvignon comes from a combination of three estate vineyards ‘Angus Brae’, ‘Narrow Road’ and ‘Three Springs’.
At 380m above sea level these are traditionally much lower yielding than those planted on the Barossa floor meaning the fruit produced is often of a higher quality.
This blend of Grenache and Shiraz and Mataro is an homage to the great wines of the Southern Rhone but with a very Barossa accent. These three classic red wine varieties are blended to showcase the unique qualities of each whilst ensuring balance, purity of fruit and the utmost drinkability.
The three Springs Vineyard is located alongside the original Schild Family Estate: planted in 1926 the Grenache vines are classified as ‘Survivour Vines’ in the Barossa Valley Old Vine Charter. The Mataro is grown in ‘Kleeman’s Block’ where vines are high on the Eastern Hills overlooking Rowland Flat. Shiraz is taken from the Hermann’s Vineyards taking premium fruit from each to blend into this typical GSM.
