Woodvale Vintners / Kevin Mitchell today is guided by generations of local horticultural and viticultural knowledge on both his father’s and mother’s side, and assisted in particular by his father Mort Mitchell.  Kevin’s philosophy is to keep things small and discrete, giving each wine the chance to perfectly depict the characteristics of the Skilly Valley and the conditions and microclimates of each vineyard.  Intervention is kept to a minimum, except to continually reinvest in the soils and the vines and to use a judicious hand in guiding and enhancing the journey from grape to glass.  This attention to detail, both in the vineyard and in the winery, was recognised with a debut five-star rating in its first Halliday Wine Companion review, with Woodvale also listed as one of the Top Ten New Wineries of 2018. Those early successes have since been backed up by outstanding vintages in a select range of varietals, including Riesling, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Mataro, Semillon, Pinot Gris and Grenache.  

Made from a blend of two Clare Valley vineyards, both parcels were harvested in the cool early morning and fermented separately. Using only free run juice, the final blend was put together in June and bottled in August 2022.

The 2023 Sharegraden Riesling has appealing aromas of limes, citrus rind, and peach blossom infiltrate the nose.  The palate is fruit driven and wrapped up in a core of tingling acidity, the palate shouts Clare Valley; lime juice, green apples and just a hint of naturally balanced sweetness.  12.5% ABV & will age gracefully for 6-10 years.
