Wine

Hewitson Gun Metal Riesling is named for the grey coloured stone found at its Moculta Road Vineyard, situated at 380 metres altitude in the Eden Valley.

Located on an east facing slope, the vineyard is shaded from the warm afternoon sun – ideal for Riesling. All the fruit is harvested by hand.

The fruit is whole bunch pressed and cold settled. Only the free run juice is taken for fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then bottled immediately after settling.

Pale straw green, Hewitson Gun Metal Riesling has citrus flavours, steely minerality and a gunpowder dry finish. Cellaring potential is seven years.
