The Baxter Family

Bob Baxter – Owner and Winemaker

With forty years experience in the wine industry and schooling in the Lindemans, Penfolds and Southcorp stables, Bob has cultivated the passion for the development of a product that is the benchmark for quality in small-scale winemaking. This pursuit of excellence is translated into a passion to express the terroir of the site and the unique characteristics of the Adelaide Hills as a region. Bob has been operating the New Era vineyards for 18 years, producing small quantities of premium red and white wines that include Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir. The recent additions of Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Tempranillo and Touriga to the product range recognise the unique characteristics of the region and the opportunity to express the distinctive characteristics of these varieties in a cool climate environment.....
