[Quizmaster]

This nineteenth century building was used to make an early wine by one of Australia’s famous pioneers, what is it used for now?

Edited by Quizz Masters partner as it didnt make sense...........

[GRB]

As a winery

[Luke W]

Stonewell cottages?

[Quizmaster]

As a winery

It wasn't originally a winery nor is it currently a winery.

[Quizmaster]

Stonewell cottages?

Accommodation

Not stonewell cottages and not accommodation.

[Quizmaster]

I believe the building was only used to produce one vintage, and it wasn't the first.

[michel]

Supermarket

[daz]

A machinery shed on a farm somewhere near Pokolbin.

[Quizmaster]

Not a supermarket and not in NSW.
The building is quite famous and is still used in a wine related capacity.

[daz]

Sounding like it's in Adelaide

[Waiters Friend]

Magill Estate? Currently a restaurant

[n4sir]

A wine company's headquarters?

Not in Adelaide, but within 375 kms of it.

Not Magill, nor a restaurant

[Quizmaster]

A wine company's headquarters?

Not a HQ

Not in Adelaide, but within 375 kms of it.

Therefore, 375 kms south is Coonawarra or thereabouts.
WCE was the first building but has had 50 plus vintages

Does it have something to do with redman, rouge homme, or woodleys treasure chest series?

is it the primary industries building south of naracoorte, is it Yallum Park????

Oh quizmaster do tell..

Getting closer, you’ve got the region, and I love the fact google isn’t providing much help
Remember we’re talking about a pioneer in the nineteenth century, this narrows it down significantly.

Another clue, this building wasn’t constructed for anything wine related. It was however used to produce a second vintage for the pioneer.

[Quizmaster]

OK, here's another clue, in fact a 'double' clue, there are two strong connections to the South Australian Caledonian Society.

[rens]

Katnook Estate’s winemaking history stretches back to 1896, when Coonawarra’s second vintage was made in the Katnook woolshed by Scottish immigrant John Riddoch. This same woolshed today houses Katnook’s oak barrels.
The two clues from the Caledonian Society I believe is a reference to John and his brother George?

Correct, it is indeed now the Katnook Barrel Room.
Katnook also produce the 'Caledonian', hence the double reference.

But Quizmaster since you are on a roll, lets see if you can come up with another trivia question

Cheers Craig.

Big deal!
Where's your sense of history! This is where Coonawarra started, the very essence of what is now one of Australia’s premier wine regions. Where, in 1891, Riddoch planted the first vines and where, in 1896, he made his second vintage. This woolshed was where Katnook commenced. Ah, the youth of today

[cuttlefish]

Haven't you tried a bottle of Macarthur Red from Parramatta ?? Released around 1791.

[rens]

I for one like the quizz. It's been a long time since we had one (and not just be cause I had the first correct answer). I'm looking forward to the next one.

[phillisc]

Yes Oh great quizmaster or should that be grasshopper!
I am a big Riddoch fan and need to pull my head in...sorry!

Am going down to God's country later in the year so will make sure that I pay homage to the great Katnook barrel shed.

Next question please.
