Winery & Vintage Info
The right variety in the right place is a tried and true path to wine satisfaction. Windy Peak matches the best varieties with the most suitable regions of Victoria and creates everyday wines in classic styles that pair brilliantly with food. Everyday wine for everyday people, every season.
Most of the fruit is from select mature vineyards in the Riverina planted '79 & '89, which each year consistently produce aromatic & flavoursome Sauvignon Blanc. The remaining fruit is from the De Bortoli cooler climate vineyards in the King Valley, ideal climate for growing premium Sauvignon Blanc.
Following good rains during winter, good soil moisture along with warm spring days leading into the 2022 vintage allowed the vines to enjoy a good growing season with crops returning to an average size. Relatively mild summer temperatures enabled the fruit to retain higher than normal acidity and freshness of flavour. Harvest began mid-January for the white grapes, with red grapes starting a month later and all Riverina fruit harvested prior to the end of March. Good yields and very good quality.
