Winemaking:The grapes were rapidly cooled to 5°C and very gently pressed. The juice was transferred to a cold settling tank, from where it was racked the following day and slightly warmed to 11°C to commence fermentation. It stayed on lees for approximately 2 months to enhance texture and complexity. The wine was then racked off the gross lees and underwent both heat and cold stabilisation prior to bottling.

Viticulture:Grown at Temple Bruer’s Eden Valley Vineyard situated on Keyneton Road, which was purchased in 2011, reconstructed and converted to organic. The Riesling block is over 40 years old and is elevated on a rolling hill on a steep gradient that runs north-south. The soil varies throughout the vineyard but at the Riesling site, it mainly comprises of loamy sand with lots of quartz gravel and rock in the subsoil.
