How the wine is made
This Riesling is made from carefully selected cool-climate vineyards in the Clare Valley, including the renowned Polish Hill River region. Using only free-run juice and gentle winemaking techniques, it preserves the wine’s fresh citrus flavours, floral aromas, and vibrant acidity while gaining extra texture from a short period on fine lees.
Why we love this producer
Pikes is an icon of the Clare Valley, boasting a family heritage that dates back to 1886 when the family first began brewing beer in South Australia. In 1984, brothers Andrew and Neil Pike pivoted the family's passion toward premium viticulture, choosing the unique, ancient slate soils of the Polish Hill River to craft world-class wines. Today, still proudly family-owned and operated, Pikes represents the absolute pinnacle of dry Australian Riesling—driven by an unwavering commitment to quality, place, and character.
Sustainability & Farming Practices
Vineyard Practices: Pikes employs an impressive array of green practices. They recycle 100% of their winery wastewater and solid grape skins/stalks into compost for the vineyards, while a 99-kilowatt rooftop solar array generates roughly 30% of their electricity. Andrew Pike actively leads local wetland re-vegetation efforts, and chemical use is kept to an absolute minimum by utilizing straw mulching and cover crops to preserve natural soil moisture and biodiversity.
