Riesling was one of the foundation varieties of the Heggies Vineyard with plantings dating back to 1975. Thin gravely soils and a limited water resource, combined with the cool climate of Eden Valley, ensure consistently moderate crops. Heggies Vineyard Riesling is harvested during the cool of night. The grapes are crushed and only the juice that drains freely from the skins is used. The fermentation is rigorously controlled to preserve flavour. Of the final wines only those deemed superior make the final cut for blending. The result is a powerful yet elegant wine.
