Riesling Eden Valley South Australia
There is a tradition of quality, character and consistency that Wolf Blass brings to bear in the delicate Gold Label Riesling. Eden Valley's distinctive Riesling wines are famous throughout the world for all the right reasons. The wines are sensationally crisp and seamlessly integrated, so well harmonized in fact that whilst all the exciting varietal characters are discernible, they're integrated in a way that's completely sublime. A magnificent match to scallops or roast turkey with traditional stuffing.
Wolf Blass made a name for himself very early in his career as being particularly gifted at constructing the most remarkable Riesling wines. Established 1966 in the neighbouring Barossa Valley, the Wolf Blass wineworks have since acquired some of the Eden Valley's most superlative Riesling vineyards. Following harvest in the cool of night to maintain fruit freshness and the persuasive expressions of Eden Valley Riesling, the grapes are gently pressed before the free run juices are transferred to fermenters for cold settling. Inoculation is initiated and a temperature controlled vinification ensues to fully capture and retain the vital Eden Valley fruit characters in the finished wine.

Wolf Blass
The Wolf Blass winery is located at the epicentre of the Australian wine industry, the Barossa Valley and has produced some of Australia's finest wines since 1966

Wolf Blass Wines International was born in 1973 when Wolf started his own business, purchasing a 2.5 acre land holding with an old army shed outside Nuriootpa, at the northern end of the Barossa Valley. John Glaetzer joined the company and from 1974-1976 Wolf Blass Wines won three consecutive Jimmy Watson Trophies, the Black Label generated substantial publicity and hype.

Wolf Blass AM was born in East Germany in September 1934. After studying and working in the European wine industry for 13 years he migrated to the Barossa Valley, South Australia in 1961 with 100 pounds in his pocket, and the belief that he could "probably add something" to the Australian wine industry. Wolf's first job after arriving in Australia was as Sparkling Wines Manager for Kaiser Stuhl in the Barossa Valley. He also worked as a freelance technical adviser for independent producers.

In 1966 Wolf registered the business name Bilyara, the aboriginal word meaning Eaglehawk. Wolf produced his first vintage of 250 dozen in the same year. Through 1969 to 1973 Wolf worked as Manager and Winemaker for Tolleys where he made his first significant impact on the local wine industry with development of red wine styles. He was considered one of the leaders of the new generation of Australian winemakers, creating individual wines of various styles under his own label.

Exports first started in the mid-1970s, and in 1984 Wolf Blass Wines became a publicly listed company. By the end of 1990, the number of National and International awards totalled an incredible 2,575 comprising 135 trophies, 712 gold medals, 812 silver medals, 869 bronze medals, and 47 diplomas.
