The Porongurup sub-region of the Great Southern has developed a reputation for producing world class rieslings in recent years. Fruit for ‘The Pamela’ is from the mature riesling vines at Misery Hill Vineyard which was established on the north east corner of the Porongurup range.

The 27-year-old vineyard is approximately 350m above sea level, is in a natural rain shadow (from the near-by Porongurup range) and has a northern aspect on lateritic soils. This cool site with minimal rainfall creates the pristine environment for mature riesling vines to thrive.

The 2023 growing season delivered ideal growing conditions with good rainfall over winter. Spring was reasonably dry, and summer held slightly cooler temperatures which allowed for the ideal riesling flavours to develop while retaining beautiful natural acidity.

The winemaking was focussed on simply preserving the delicate flavours and aromas from the fruit and allowing the vineyard’s sense of place to shine through.

Pale quartz in colour this wine shows beautiful lemon sherbet and lime zest aromatics with subtle hints of sea-salt and a talc, chalky minerality that will develop further in bottle. The acidity is tight knit whereby the palate is characterised by the natural acidic drive, with lime flavours flowing through the length of the palate. There is superb drive, length and balance to this wine. It will develop further over 20 years.

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.
