This is an outstanding opportunity to compare how the seasons effect the same vineyard and fruit that makes the wine. The 2013, 2015 and 2018 vintages are comparable for their typical slow ripening conditions for the Eden Valley region. Comparing these vintages allows you to explore how Riesling ages and develops its luscious full bodied mouth feel and depth of flavour.

The 2013 vintage was harvested on 25th February, after a dry growing season with late finishing rain fall. A cool January was followed by a warm February. This vintage produced low yield, yet intense fruit flavour. We were careful to hand-pick our Riesling to protect the delicate berries once their varietal flavours had developed. Although the season was dry our vines benefited from the extra love and care we gave them with this vintage being our first for Kyara.
The 2015 & 2018 vintage was harvested in February, after conditions which provided a classic Riesling growing season. A wet winter was followed by a mild spring and summer which provided perfect ripening for our fruit. We were careful to hand-pick our Riesling to protect the delicate berries and ensure the purest fruit flavour. Our Riesling vineyard also benefited from areas being mulched prior year to help maintain and develop soil health.
