Dan Standish is the reigning king of the Barossa Valley as quoted from the Wine Advocate. The Standish Wine company was founded in 1999 by Dan Standish. He started at that time with a small, family-owned plot of almost hundred-year-old Shiraz vines in the heart of the Barossa Valley, in the sub-region of Vine Vale. He is part of the sixth generation of immigrants who settled here in 1848. In his career, Dan Standish gained experience not only in his home country, but also in California, Spain and France. He is passionate about the great wines of the Rhône Valley.

Dan Standish learnt his craft from David Powell at Torbreck, Dan was one of the key winemakers behind the success of Torbreck and worked there for over 10 years befre founding Standish Wine Company. The knowledge and expertise he gained during his time at Torbreck played a critical role in shaping the philosophy and quality of his single-vineyard Shiraz wines.

Stylish, seductive and devastatingly powerful, the Standish wines are Barossa wines with unmistakable X-Factor. The founders of The World of Wine actively collect Standish wines for their personal collections. We are proud of the wines and we commend Dan Standish for his incredible work!
