Warren has had an illustrious and particularly sparkling wine career, which started at Seppeltsfield (making great bubblies) and has now come full circle. Expect the unexpected and lots of activity. The visionary Gravity flow winery is the current major project. We started its revival last year, and now it will be back at virtually full production, making Barossa's finest wines from 2010.
