“Founder and owner Peter Papanikitas has been involved in various facets of the wine industry for the past 30 years. Initially his contact was with companies that included Penfolds, Lindemans and Leo Buring, then he spent five years working for Cinzano, gaining experience in worldwide sales and marketing. In 2000 he established Stonefish, a virtual winery operation, in partnership with the various grapegrowers and winemakers, principally in the Barossa Valley and Margaret River, who provide the wines. The value for money has never been in doubt, but Stonefish moved to another level with its 12 Icon and Reserve Barossa Shirazs.” – James Halliday Australian Wine Companion

Awards
James Halliday’s 2013 Australian Wine Companion
2010 Stonefish Reserve Shiraz – Rating 93
“The wine has layer upon layer of blackberry, blood plum, spice and licorice flavours; oak barely rates a mention, and the tannins are full, round and soft
2010 Stonefish Shiraz – Rating 91
“Aromas of red and black cherries… a deceptive wine because the length of the palate and the lingering flavours on the aftertaste come as a pleasant surprise.”
2010 Stonefish Merlot – Rating 91
2011 Stonefish Verdelho – Rating 89
2011 Stonefish Chardonnay – Rating 88
