About
Pikes pride themselves on producing quality handcrafted wines, that reflect the variety and region. The Pike family have been producing quality wine, beer and aerated waters since 1886 it is a family tradition of which we are proud.
The colour is a brilliant pale straw with green hues. On the nose there expressive aromas of perfume, citrus blossom and fresh lime dominate with a talcy/mineral note evident. All the hallmarks of an excellent vintage. The palate is crisp and acid driven. Plenty of fresh lime and other citrus flavours. More delicate than recent years, the balance of palate weight, acid and barely-there sweetness creates a seamless and lengthy finish. Delicious.

Campbell Mattinson, The WineFront
Pikes Traditional Riesling has a great ability to mix friendliness with quality. It often seems quite open and fruit ‘forward’ but it keeps its length intact, and its line. This 2021 release is a beauty; chalky and dry but ripped with citrus-driven fruit. It’s not excessively intense but it’s above-average in that regard. It’s delicious. It’s elegant. And it’s value speaks for itself.
