Four Winds Riesling

“The Four Winds Story began with a miner and his wife who lived on the property in a slab-hut. Her name was Scheherazade, after the story telling character in The Arabian Nights. Her favourite story described a magic carpet being borne by the four winds of good fortune. She named this small farm in Murrumbateman ‘Four Winds’ in the hope it would carry their good fortunes.

We are located to the north of Canberra just east of Murrumbateman, on the corner of Murrumbateman Road and Patemans Lane. We planted our thirty-three acre vineyard in 1998 and 1999 with five varieties; Shiraz, Riesling, Cabernet, Merlot and Sangiovese.” – Four Wind Vineyard.

“Ultra pale lemon colour. Lemon curd and sweet pastry aromas. Lemon zest, pea shoots, and salty notes run across the tongue. Zippy acidity keeps it very fresh and lively, with good flow and as decent length.” – SILVER 90 Points, The Real Review
