Bream Creek Vineyard was planted in 1973 on Tasmania's east coast, overlooking Marion Bay and Maria Island, making it one of the state's oldest and pioneering vineyards. Originally planted mainly to Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon, the vineyard's focus shifted toward Pinot Noir after Fred Peacock purchased the property in 1990, alongside the first commercial Southern Hemisphere plantings of the rare German variety Schönburger. Now a 7.5-hectare estate suited to Tasmania's cool maritime climate, Bream Creek has built a strong reputation, particularly for its Pinot Noir, regularly earning high scores and trophies at major Australian wine shows.

Riesling was one of the two founding varieties planted at Bream Creek back in 1974, making this release a direct link to the vineyard's earliest history rather than a newer addition to the range. The estate sits on a north-east ridge overlooking Marion Bay and the Tasman Sea, where a gently sloping site and strong maritime influence combine to give the fruit real precision and natural acidity — conditions widely regarded as ideal for premium cool-climate Riesling. Bream Creek has built a genuinely strong track record across its range, including a Grand Champion Wine of Show trophy for its 2024 Pinot Noir at a major Australian wine show, reflecting a level of consistency across varieties that extends to this Riesling. It's a versatile food wine, well suited to fresh seafood, spiced Asian dishes, or simply drinking on its own as a crisp aperitif, and a strong pick for anyone wanting a genuine, site-driven Tasmanian Riesling from one of the state's pioneering estates.
