Gold – Hobart Wine Show 2021

Pale straw with green in colour. This Riesling has fragrant aromas of fresh lime and musk. A juicy, vibrant palate with luscious citrus and crisk mineral acidity for drinkability when young, but also rewarding time in the cellar.

The fruit for this Riesling was hand harvested from the Tamar Valley and Relbia regions in Tasmania. 2022 In Tasmania was again one of many challenges, with each of the sub regions behaving even more differently from each other than usual. The Tamar Valley was well ahead of all other regions from the outset and performed strongly, with little disease pressure at all and warm sunny days bringing in clean fruit with solid flavour early in the season. The outcome of this tricky season is aromatic wines with complex flavour concentration, ripe structure and lovely mid palate.

About Bay of Fires Wines

The entire Bay of Fires team is focused on one singular passion – sharing Tasmania’s best wines with you. A variety of vineyards and varieties are chosen based on the search for unique personalities.

With consistency and quality in mind, the team crafts alluring Tasmanian wines. The wines are produced from hand-picked Tasmanian fruit, specially selected for quality and character. Each fruit parcel is kept separate so its unique essence can be captured at just the right time. After that, the fruit is allowed to let nature work its magic in the finest oak available. The alchemy of this winemaking practice is evident in every bottle.

Bay of Fires’ philosophy, in the vineyard and in the winery, is to ensure the varietal characteristics of our Tasmanian fruit are revealed, preserved and celebrated in every wine we create for you.

Bay of Fires’ Tasmanian terroir delivers outstanding fruit – our vines enjoy a cool, maritime climate that provides steady ripening conditions. However, with this climate comes the challenges of lower sunlight levels and a greater variation in terroir – the very complexities that encourage our determination.

Extraordinary challenges bring exceptional results. It’s no easy task growing vines in Tasmania – it requires lots of passion, hard work, commitment and knowledge. But when vineyards are nurtured with these four qualities, the result is truly remarkable fruit and the Bay of Fires wine range.

Just like the sub-regions of our island state, every vineyard has a unique and distinctive character forged out of its soil, its climate and, of course, its careful management.
