Nestled in the Barossa’s North you'll find Gibson’s cellar door.

Characteristically unassuming, the roadside entrance gives little away. A rusty tin-roofed cottage is set back from a few rows of vines. Originally home to the local blacksmith, its walls are made of ‘pug’ - a mix of mud and straw. Its bowed timbers reflective of 170 years lived in scorching Barossa summers and bone-chilling winters.

Set behind this old cottage, lovingly known as ‘The Smithy’, a secret place is discovered. Gibson's modern, cosy tasting room boasts a simple, down-to-earth vibe and opens to a courtyard with stunning vineyard views. The cutest fireplace in the Barossa is found right here.

The winemaker’s dog reminds you that although polished, this is no corporate shopfront. Guests are greeted like family, and it's been this way since its humble beginnings in 1996.

Its iconic, handlebar-moustache-endowed founder, Rob Gibson, spent his formative years as
a geologist. Uncovering gems in the field, then training as a viticulturist, he eventually landed the nickname ‘The Dirtman’.

This love of prospecting carries through Gibson’s wines. They proudly champion wines that are 'dirtborn' - the best being hidden, requiring a spirit of discovery to unearth them.

This is a place where stories are told, where comfort is king and where the wine, simply, speaks
for itself. It might just be Gibson’s most precious gem yet.
