Description
Beginning with meticulous site selection and vineyard design started in 1991, Felton Road’s story is one of refusal to compromise.
A strict 100% estate policy with fully organic and biodynamic viticulture (Demeter certified) ensures their fruit arrives at the winery as pure as it can be, while their entire estate comes as close to true sustainability as is possible.
Near 30-year-old vines offer layers of aromas making it difficult to discern individual components: it’s just un-mistakably Felton Road.
Schist, respectful farming and our indigenous yeast all contribute to this highly individual and identifiable style.
A burst of sweetness in the middle is reminiscent of a perfectly tree-ripened peach, concluding with a flavour laden crisp finish that never seems to end.
Felton Road Bannockburn Riesling 2021 vintage is made in an off-dry style from Riesling grown on the Elms Vineyard.
Low alcohol, bright acidity, and residual sugar all combine to produce a uniquely balanced wine.
