Tasting Notes

At Redbank we take growing grapes to the edge. Our Vineyards are some of the highest and coldest sites in Australia, sitting at 650 metres above sea level, on the edge of the Great Dividing Range. We aim to create wines of intense flavour and crisp natural acidity, wines that taste as close to the grape as you can get. Altitude is Everything.

The palate is built on primary fruit flavours, it’s fresh and crunchy with hints of orange blossom and sherbet. The nose is fruit driven with great citrus characters.


 

Vinification & Cultivation

Crafted only for our premium wines

Vineyard Cultivation

Emily by Redbank is the sparkling range of Redbank Wines, a King Valley label in Victoria's alpine north-east that draws on the region's strong Italian grape-growing heritage. The King Valley, rising from the valley floor into cooler high-country sites, has become Australia's benchmark region for Prosecco (Glera), its altitude and cool nights preserving the crisp acidity and delicate aromatics the style demands. Fruit for this wine is sourced from small, family-owned growers across the valley. As a non-vintage Prosecco it is built for freshness and immediacy rather than to express a single season, with picking timed to capture bright, primary fruit.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested and gently pressed to protect the delicate, floral character of Glera. Fermentation produces a crisp, dry base wine, and the sparkle is created in the manner typical of Prosecco, through a second fermentation in a pressurised tank (the Charmat or tank method) rather than in bottle, which keeps the fruit fresh and the mousse soft. The wine is then filtered and bottled under pressure for early release. The result is a light, aromatic style showing pear, green apple and floral notes, finished off-dry to brut. Exact method and dosage for this release NEEDS VERIFICATION.

About this Wine

Victoria

The wine region of Victoria has the highest number of grape vines than any other state in Australia. It is home to over 600 wineries and well known regions such as Yarra valley, Heathcote, and Rutherglen. Victoria is situated in the southeastern corner of Australia where due to the location, the climate has a cool maritime influence and is known for their outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, along with producing Australia’s most famed dessert Muscat and Topaque wines.

There are a number of different terroir levels throughout the wine region of Victoria which leads to the production of different ranges of wines. In the southern region of Victoria, the vines are regulated by the cool winds of the Bass Strait. Central Victoria consists of mostly flat terrain that tends to be drier and warmer than the rest of Victoria, which results in more fruit concentrated wines. It may be surprising to note that Victoria is the third most productive wine region in Australia, seeing as it does not have as many areas suitable for viticulture, which has resulted in the cellar door culture of Victoria being concentrated with smaller, but more personal boutique wineries.
