About Wolf Blass
Wolf Blass is one of Australia's most iconic and decorated wine brands, established in 1966 by German-born winemaker Wolfgang Blass in the Barossa Valley, South Australia. Starting from a tiny shed with little money but exceptional winemaking expertise, Wolf Blass has grown to boast over 8,000 awards across their wines - a testament to the founder's vision and the consistent quality that has made the brand a household name worldwide. Wolfgang Blass's journey to Australian winemaking legend began with formal training in Germany, where he became the youngest person to graduate with a Master's in Oenology from Veitschoechheim-Wuerzberg. After studying Champagne techniques in France and blending arts in England, he arrived in the Barossa Valley in 1961. The iconic eagle (eaglehawk) on every Wolf Blass label comes from the Aboriginal word "Bilyara" for the road where Blass bought his first vineyard - and conveniently matches Germany's heraldic eagle. Wolf Blass wines are organised in a distinctive colour-coded label system that makes choosing easy. Yellow Label represents accessible, everyday wines; Red, Gold, Brown, Grey, and Black labels progress through quality tiers; while the prestigious Platinum Label is reserved exclusively for single-vineyard bottlings. The Black Label achieved legendary status by winning the 1974 Jimmy Watson Trophy - Australia's most prestigious wine award - and remains highly sought after. Today, Wolf Blass sources grapes from all of Southern Australia's renowned wine regions including Clare Valley, Eden Valley, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra, Barossa Valley, Adelaide Hills, and Langhorne Creek.
