Guest winemaker Karl Stockhausen has been a winemaker in the Hunter Valley for over 50 years. His name was behind the marvellous Lindeman’s Hunter Valley Classics in the 1960’s, 1970’s and 1980’s. Today he continues his involvement with quality wines by selecting the fruit and supervising the winemaking process for two wines that typify traditional Hunter Styles; the Karl Stockhausen Signature Semillon and the Karl Stockhausen Signature Shiraz. In June 2007, Karl was officially made a “Legend” by receiving one of the six inaugural recipients of the Hunter Living Legends Awards.
