Teusner

Our notes:

 

Kym Teusner is one of the Barossa’s young Turks but with a twist. While many of his generation are making massively rich and ripe reds (often at very high prices), Teusner has aimed to balance the natural power of old vine Barossa material with careful, reductive winemaking that produces wines of wonderful elegance and complexity. His wines are about as close as the Barossa gets to reminding the drinker of the Southern Rhone. And the value for money they offer is quite astounding.

 

Teusner Wines came into being late in 2001 when Kym Teusner (then Torbreck winemaker) witnessed a conversation between his wife’s uncle and his brother. They were discussing the viability of an old Grenache vineyard, planted in the Northern Barossa Valley by their grandfather. The low yields and low prices being paid by the ‘Big Boys’ meant that the vineyard was running at a loss and was facing certain destruction. Kym was loath to hear this and approached his brother in law, now business partner, Michael Page to see if they could scratch together enough cash to keep these gnarled old vines in the ground. In that first year they raised enough capital for only about a quarter of the fruit from that vineyard, but this was enough for the Riebke brothers to stall their plans for these precious old vines. They were aware of a few other old blocks that fruit could be sourced from, if required, and made their first release with 165 cases of 2002 Joshua. In addition to this about 8 hogsheads of Grenache, Mataro and Shiraz was put aside, destined to be released around 24 months later as Avatar. From here the wines have gone from strength to strength and the range today receives constant accolades.
