WOLF BLASS

Wolf Blass Wines

Wolfgang Franz Otto Blass was born in Germany in 1934.

After Wolf ran away from school, his parents gave him an ultimatum: start a 3-year winemaking apprenticeship or get back to class. And so began a journey which changed the winemaking world.

After studying Champagne techniques in France in 1957, Wolf became the youngest person ever to graduate with a Masters in Oenology (Wine Science) from Veitschoechheim-Wuerzberg. In 1959, he moved to England to study the art of blending before moving to the Barossa Valley in 1961, deciding against a move to Venezuela. In 1966, he established Wolf Blass Wines.
     

Wolf Blass has a long and proud history of making award-winning wines using age-old methods.

Our world-class winery is the home for our winemaking team, who blend old and new techniques to create extraordinary wines.
