Kalleske are one of our nation's most distinguished winegrower families, Barossa through and through, heirs to the tradition of Prussian pastoralists who established South Australia as one of the world's great viticultural precincts. The family Kalleske were the quiet achievers behind the stellar quality of fruit, at the heart of the most memorable vintages Penfolds Grange. Old sites and ancient vines, a tally of which have been branded under the Atze's Corner label, a regal range of stately Barossa wines, irresistibly underpriced in terms of provenance, excellence and sheer delight. Spectacular bouquets, redolent of freshness, fragrance and fruit, astonishingly balanced to perfection, meaty, mouth filling palates, layered with punnets of savoury ripe berries, all wrapped in the type of chewy, seductive tannins which can only be described as understatedly epic. Aspirants of undiscovered classics, suitors of the Grand Barossa Cru, every red wine enthusiast in the country should be availing themselves immediately, call a confederate and confer, over a case or two of the softly spoken superlatives which dwell on Atze's Corner... Small batches of the barossa's very best»

James Gordon and John Alexander MacPhail established a Family Grocers, Tea, Wine & Spirit Merchants at Elgin in 1895. They sourced Whisky from local distilleries, specialising in single Malts and bottling under license for famous distilleries such as Macallan and Glenlivet, Glen Grant, Linkwood and Mortlach. Their single Malts and house blends were almost always filled into Spanish Sherry casks, to be matured for much longer than was customary at the time. Gordon & MacPhail acquired Benromach in 1993, after an extensive refurbishment, the ancient Distillery was officially re opened by the Prince of Wales in 1998.
