Saltram

In 1844, a recently arrived immigrant from England named William Salter was one of the first people to purchase land in the newly opened land survey known as the Barossa Valley.

He built a stone house for his family naming it "Mamre Brook" after Abraham's spiritual home in the book of Genesis. Mamre Brook House still stands today as the spiritual home of Saltram.

William Salter and Son's first planted grapes in 1859 and in 1862 produced 8000 litres of a wine appropriately named "No.1 Shiraz".

In the history of Saltram there have only been eight senior winemakers, two families dominate the list: Salter and Dolan. Three generations of Salters made wine until 1937 and the Dolan's have played a part at Saltram from the 1950's through until today.
