Quality Wines Crafted with Minimal Intervention in Victoria

Red Edge Winery: A Commitment to Minimal Intervention

Located on a picturesque slope overlooking Heathcote, Red Edge Winery is about 100 kilometers north of Melbourne in Victoria, Australia. Winemaker Peter Dregde adheres to a minimal intervention philosophy, ensuring that every bottle reflects the true essence of the vineyard. All vines are hand-pruned, and grapes are meticulously hand-picked. The winemaking process is equally hands-on, utilizing techniques such as whole bunch maceration, wild yeast fermentation, hand plunging, and gravity racking, with no fining or filtration involved.

This careful approach guarantees that each wine produced at Red Edge showcases the unique characteristics of its terroir, resulting in exceptional quality.

Vines Thriving in Ancient Cambrian Soil

The vineyard is planted in 500-million-year-old Cambrian soil, one of the oldest types of surface soil on Earth, with its first vines planted in 1971. The region experiences a continental climate, featuring hot, dry summers and cool winters. The cool autumn nights play a crucial role in helping the grapes maintain their natural acidity, a vital aspect of traditional winemaking.

Handcrafted Wines from Estate-Grown Grapes

Initially starting with 2 hectares of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Edge has expanded to 14 hectares, now cultivating a variety of grapes including Tempranillo, Mourvèdre, Graciano, Touriga Nacional, Mencia, and Riesling. All wines are crafted exclusively from estate-grown fruit, encompassing red wines, sparkling wines, and fortified wines. These handcrafted selections from a single vineyard in a premium growing area possess unique qualities that meet international standards.
