Heggies Vineyard Riesling 2022 (6x 750mL

  1. Heggies Vineyard Riesling 2022 (6x 750mL).

Wine Summary Image

This carefully tended vineyard with its manicured rows of vines and innovative viticultural practices, is a stark contrast to the windblown, surrounding hills, the towering eucalypts and rocky granite outcrops. Heggies is an estate where 'terroir' showcases wines of fine mineralities, flavour and balance.

Expert Reviews

Long and super refreshing

94 Points

Damn. For the love of Riesling! I've only reviewed three Heggies Rieslings over the years and this is by far the best. Riesling is one of the best value varieties available and I suspect you'll find this cheaper in retail land. And if you do, jump on it. Pretty scents of bath powder and little white flowers throw out the welcome mat - just beautiful! Lemons tease as they swim about with ease. A hint of tart green apple floats about with a minerally drive pinned to the core. A mouth perfume headed by musk keeps the attractive features bowling along. Long and super refreshing with talc-like feels, find the ice bucket with some tempura prawns. Winning! Drink now.

Lively and perfectly poised

93 Points

How is it possible that such deliciousness is still circa $20 a bottle? Between this Heggies Vineyard Riesling 2022 and the Pewsey Vale last week, there is enough evidence to suggest a)you should drink more Australian dry Riesling b)so should everyone else. The cool year is imprinted here. Celery and grapefruit crunch, yet the palate has this lovely lemongrass citrus generosity that really carries it. Maybe not wildly intense, but man, this is lively and perfectly poised. Yum. Best drinking: now or in a decade. I’d just go now. 18/20, 93/100. 11.5%, $26. Heggies Vineyard website. Would I buy it? Shit yes. In 15 seconds of Googling, I found it for sub $20, including delivery!

Winery Tasting Notes

Pale straw with green-gold tints. Aromas of green apple, citrus blossom, lime zest and sherbet with underlying hints of pink grapefruit and bath salts. The palate is underpinned by a refreshing drive of natural acidity that is in lovely balance with generous fruit flavours of citrus curd, fresh lemon and lime zest and a slatey textured finish which is so typical of Heggies vineyard.

Winery Profile

The magnificent sweep of country that is now the Heggies Vineyard had been grazing land for most of its settled history and was owned by local grazier and bushman, Colin Heggie, before being purchased by Wyndham Hill Smith, then Manager of the Yalumba Wine Company.

Friends since school days, Colin and Wyndham's friendship continued into adulthood and throughout their lengthy negotiation over the purchase of Heggie's land - a negotiation that was, it has been suggested, not a lot more than an excuse for relaxed chats about land, cattle, horses, wine and life!

Planting began in 1971 on the tough North Eastern corner of the property and the first wine was released in 1979. It was the first wine to bear the idiosyncratic label that features a drawing of Colin Heggie, the bushman, looking out over the fledgling Heggies plantings astride his faithful chestnut, Jack.

At 550 metres above sea level, Heggies is one of Australia's highest altitude vineyards and also one of its coolest. The close-planted clonally-selected grafted vines are grown in semi-drought conditions, meaning the soil is lean and hungry - a thin layer of grey sandy loam over clay and decomposed rock. The vines compete vigorously for moisture and nutrient, encouraging roots to dig deep into the soil where it is moist and cool throughout all seasons.

Oz Wine Review, 15 Nov 2022

Another fine release of this label

93 Points

Very pale lemon/straw colour. Fresh lime juice and spiced lemongrass with depth and richness from brûlée, curd and talc. Everything in place. Neat as a pin with precise acidity balancing elegant fruit. Good persistence offering plenty of length to the palate. Another fine release of this label.

Has promise!

92 Points

A lighter style with lovely purity of citrus varietal fruit with a slight hint of tropics. "Has promise!"

Winestate Magazine Riesling Tasting, 01 Nov 2022

A lovely meeting place between ripeness and tension

91 Points

Lemon pith and orange blossoms mix with wet stone aromas on the nose. With air, wafts of limes emerge too: it's a medley of citrus fruit. The palate is composed, a lovely meeting place between ripeness and tension. It's very well made and is drinking beautifully in its youth but has intensity and staying power to be cellared.
