  I reckon Mount Barker is one of best areas is Oz for producing Riesling. I know Clare, Eden Valley and Tassie get all the limelight but the structure and flavour of Mount Barker Rizza is truly a delight to behold. Do Galafrey make Riesling??

  yes, galafrey makes Riesling, in fact , we were one of the first to win an International award for our Riesling in 1991. We also were the first in the region to make a Sparkling Riesling!
  I think Mount Barker makes great Riesling, in fact, one third of our vineyard is Riesling.
  
  cheers and enjoy the wine!
