The Skilly Ridge vineyard, planted by the Ingham family in 1994 produces an array of exciting varietal characteristics from each of the different planted varieties. Much thought was given to where each variety would be planted, and this saw the Riesling block thrive on a mixture of clay, loam and shale with an ideal easterly aspect.

For over 26 years, this vineyard has been meticulously cared for, attention being paid to shoot positioning, sun exposure and ideal canopy size. This careful management has produced fruit that easily deserves a home in a special release wine.

The 2019 Skilly Ridge Riesling has floral and citrus aromatics and a seamless palate with a richness of flavour built from the dry ripening conditions of the vintage. Produced using only free-run juice, fruit flavours are kept pure and the resultant wine mirrors the berries tasted in the vineyard at harvest.

This wine is enjoyable with or without food and will develop gracefully for up to 15 years.
