Brothers At War

Angus and Sam Wardlaw are the ‘Brothers at War’, starting off with a tonne of grapes, and an idea to produce unique expressions of the region they call home.

Second-generation winemakers, they lean heavily on the knowledge gained from a childhood spent around their father, Barossa pioneer, David Wardlaw.

Working across the Barossa and Eden Valleys, the brothers produce a swath of wines; young fresh easy-drinking styles, to much more serious, old-vine expressions.

Warring brothers at times perhaps, but when push comes to shove, like the Dire Straits song says, “You did not desert me, my brother(s) in arms.”

"Brothers Angus and Sam Wardlaw are behind this exciting addition to the contemporary Barossa wine scene and, as the name suggests, they could have possibly had the odd rumble as they were growing up under the watch of their father, Barossa winemaker, David Wardlaw. Established in '13 with a small intake of shiraz, the brothers gathered pace over the ensuing years, adding vigneron Chris Alderton to the mix and today the formidable trio craft a superb range of purely fruited, vibrant wines from across the Barossa and Eden Valleys. Brothers at War is a young winery with a very bright future indeed."
