The pursuit of fruit off of the Smith family’s organic certified ‘Ruchioch’ Polish Hill vineyard was an aspirational goal for Col McBryde for a decade.

While the vine age, elevation and soil profiles are all similar to Col's Polish Hill River source, Ruchioch is a very low cropping site, giving delicious and intensely flavoured fruit.

Riesling with pulpy mid-palate concentration and texture, and amazingly dominant acid, all combined to create a very lively wine!
