About Us

Hartz Barn Wines is a family-operated vineyard and wine enterprise based in the village of Moculta, Eden Valley, Barossa region of South Australia. The home of Hartz Barn Wines has supported the families of the district as a General Store (known as Hentschke General Store) since 1885 offering an extensive range of goods and services.

Our Hartz Barn Wines label depicts the Moculta General Store and the activities that took place are recorded with the varieties of our wines.

What is unusual about these wines in how well the powerful fruit and tannins have been handled, and the elegance achieved in what was a blockbuster year. There is no doubt that the attention to detail and the passion to achieve is paramount in the pursuit of quality. If the wines are a reflection of the producers, then I feel we have much to look forward to at Hartz Barn.
