AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

A fruit driven, medium bodied red with black cherry aromatics, Turkish delight mid palate and a long lingering finish. A contemporary, elegant and well-structured wine.

The fruit for this wine was hand-picked, stored cold in a sea container overnight before processing the following day. The fruit was crushed to an open fermenter containing 20% whole bunches. Whole bunches were used in the ferment for complexing aromatics and tanning profile. The fruit received a three day cold soak before being inoculated with Clos yeast and spending 14 days on skins. This wine spent minimal time in oak with the aim of keeping the wine bright and fresh in tank with subtle oak influence.

About RiverBank Estate

RiverBank Estate sits adjacent to the old RiverBank Juvenile Detention Centre which was built in the 1960’s and housed boys who found themselves in trouble with the law. Rebellious holds two meanings; in reference to these troubled youth and to our unique wines being different to the mainstream varietals.

A fruit driven, medium bodied red with black cherry aromatics, Turkish delight mid palate and a long lingering finish. A contemporary, elegant and well-structured wine.

RiverBank Estate was first planted on the fertile banks of the Swan River in 1988 and has grown to encompass nearly thirty acres of mature, low yielding vines, producing exceptional fruit that is lovingly handcrafted into premium, regional, varietal wines, vinified and bottled on-site.
