Our Story
Two Sisters Wine Company boasts a deep-rooted family history in the Barossa Valley
Two Sisters Wine Company boasts a long-standing family history in the Barossa Valley, tracing back to 1843 when Christian Auricht, an ancestor of grower David Braunack, settled in Langmeil, South Australia. The German settlers soon discovered the land’s suitability for winemaking and thus began a long-standing family tradition and legacy.
unification of love
When marriage brought two newly settled Barossa families together, it was a unification of love and a strong culture and history of growing grapes. Both families had left their homes in Germany in search for freedom in a new country, in which they made Australia their new home.The growing of grapes has been in the family for six generations and has continued with each generation.
Para View
When Christian Auricht arrived at the banks of the Para River, he quickly got to work constructing his first property, “Para View.” Shortly after, he established a small vineyard. He could not have anticipated the significant impact that the Barossa Valley would have on the wine industry over the next half-century.
6 Generations On
Today, David, who is the 6th generation to own the land, still produces grapes on "Para View Estate” which was established by Christian Auricht.
Legacy Continued
Since the legacy has been passed down to David Braunack, he has done all in his power to preserve the family tradition, and acquire as much original land and equipment as possible.
Two Sisters Wine Company is Born
Today, David has moved away from just growing quality grapes into producing quality wines.
David has brought on Leon Deans to help elevate the wines to an exceptional quality.
Today, the Two Sisters Wine company grows most of its fruit on one of the last remaining pieces of land settled by Christian Auricht, and is aptly named after David’s two daughters who will eventually lead the family business, in addition to the coming together of two families to create a unique chapter in SA wine history.
