Hello 

Though stepping into the limelight more recently with a string of accolades, as an export-only wine, many of you may be unaware that we've been making the Kegelbahn since 2005. Strolling down our memory lane of wines and labels, it occurred to me that in keeping with the Barossa's Germanic heritage, its earlier incarnations first bore the title 'Das' before the correction of 'Die Kegelbahn'. Before I knew it, I was transported back to my first day of German lessons discovering that in this exciting and highly lucid language, all nouns have an assigned gender. What was this der, die or das all about? We'd only just begun, and there were already three different ways of saying 'the'. Four years later, I still hadn't mastered it!  Indeed, Oscar Wilde once quipped that 'life is too short to learn German.'

Not the easiest of vernaculars to master, and neither is the game of Kegel itself. Effectively ten pin bowling with nine pins, twice the distance, a third of the width concave wooden alley down which you send a ball with no holes in a slight zigzagging path in an attempt to knock down the eight rear pins while leaving the front nine-pin standing. The very embodiment of the ancient Prussian ethos of 'maximum effort'.

While we may poke fun at our forebears, it's the Barossa's six generations of Teutonic determination that have resulted in wines of maximum quality and enjoyment. With a six-pack of the 2018 Kegelbahn Shiraz delivered to your door for $99.95, we've done die harte Arbeit for you!

Ja, ja, das ist wunderbar!
