2010 Trevarrick Riesling

Trevarrick was the original name of the Skillogalee property, settled by John and Anne Trestrail in the early 1850’s.  In 1970 it was planted to vines and renamed.  Now at Skillogalee each individual contour block on the Estate is harvested and vinified separately.  The Trevarrick name is reserved for wines that are of exceptional quality and varietal character.

The grapes for this wine were selectively harvested off the highest altitude, earliest ripening contour on the property.  The stony, thin soils and topography of this part of the vineyard produce unique, characterful, high quality grapes.  

The 2010 Riesling was made from 100% hand picked fruit.  Only first-cut free run juice was used to ensure the varietal character was captured in the finished wine.  The wine shows a floral perfume on the nose with a nice touch of orange blossom.  The palate has great length and minerality with all the citrus attributes expected of a Skillogalee Riesling.  A tight, fresh and focused acidity keeps everything in balance.

The wine is sealed using a glass vinolok stopper to ensure its longevity and freshness.

Trevarrick showcases the essence of Skillogalee!
