The Blue Lake vineyard is an established dry grown vineyard. It is situated on the south-west plains of the Mount Barker sub-region. Blue Lake vineyard consistently provides excellent growing conditions.

The 2024 growing season delivered early ripening conditions for growing premium riesling in the Great Southern region. There was good rainfall over winter. Spring was reasonably dry and summer was hot which resulted in the riesling harvest being four weeks earlier than normal. Careful vineyard management meant the fruit retained a beautiful natural acidity which forms the backbone of this wine.

The primary focus of the winemaking process was to preserve the delicate flavours and aromas of the vineyard’s fruit. The fruit was handpicked and whole-bunch pressed on 22 February 2024. The juice was cold settled and fermented at a temperature of 14°C. It was then left to rest until preparation for bottling in June 2024.

The colour is light and pristine, and the aromatics display powerful pithy lime and lemon with enticing notes of citrus blossom. The palate is characterised by the powerful acidic drive of the wine. Dry and elegant, the wine showcases flavours of intense lime juice and zest, with notes of lemon blossom and river stone minerality (which will develop further with bottle age). The wine has a clean, refreshing finish, with a lingering lemony acidity.

About Singlefile Wines

Singlefile Wines represents our family’s pursuit of excellence. Every wine in our range embodies a drive to craft wines of exceptional quality from Western Australia’s Great Southern wine region.

At Singlefile we strive to excel in every task that comes before us. From rigorously analysing soil composition and climatic variations through to vigour in the winery, Singlefile’s approach to winemaking is nothing short of singular.

Singlefile’s wines are expressions of the unique terroir of the Great Southern wine region, which imparts distinctive attributes to the parcels of fruit that alight in our winery. We hand pick sites that best suit each of our varieties. Invariably, these sites are premium cool-climate settings, boasting supreme conditions to grow grapes of outstanding quality.

Singlefile fruit is treated as naturally as possible, allowing the beauty of the grape to shine in the final wine. In the winery, we also embrace the “less is more” practice, where wines are allowed to develop with minimal intervention.
