The Oakridge Specialty Range is a playful series made up of non-core vineyards, alternate varieties and experimental blends.

Bright pale straw. Lifted and invigorating, the bouquet opens with fresh lemon zest and grilled white peaches, underpinned by detailed nuances of lime granita and warm ginger. On the palate, a burst of intense finger lime flavour leads into a fleshy chew of complementary flavours and textures. There are elements of grapefruit, quince and even orange rind on show. Acidity is perfectly balanced with these glossy fruit flavours - the finish is long and salivating. A wine that flows effortlessly across the palate and disappears all too quickly.

Single Vineyard fruit sourced from a pocket of ancient red volcanic soils in Wandin Yallock. Vines planted in 1978 by Horst "Jim" Zitzlaff and the original home of Oakridge before moving to our current home in Coldstream. The Riesling was always Horst's favorite variety on the property so naming the wine in his honor seemed more than appropriate.

Grapes were handpicked and whole bunch pressed before a natural fermentation on full solids and ageing on yeast lees. Only 70 dozen produced.

A vintage defined by warm, dry conditions, healthy crops and harvesting in late summer/early autumn. The resulting wines have great intensity of flavour and vibrant, balanced acidities.
