Description

Peter Dredge ("Dr. Edge") doesn't do boring Riesling. This pan-Tasmanian blend pulls together fruit from the North (Tamar Valley), South (Derwent Valley), and East (Coal River Valley) to create a wine that is as structural as it is refreshing.

It isn't your standard "squeaky clean" Tassie Riesling. Dredge leans into texture and complexity here, fermenting the juice naturally in a mix of clay amphora, old French oak casks, and stainless steel. The amphora component even includes whole clusters, adding a savoury, phenolic grip that sets this apart from the pack.

After six months on lees, it is bottled unfiltered with a small amount of residual sugar to balance the ripping acidity. The result is classic citrus and steel, but with "meat on the bones" - a layer of savoury funk and weight that makes it fascinating to drink. It is textured, complex, and a little bit wild.

Dr Edge Tasmania Riesling is a blend of Derwent Valley, Tamar Valley & Coal River Valley fruit. Pressed to clay amphora, old French oak casks and stainless steel, the juice is fermented naturally, matured for 6 months on lees and blended to bottle with a small amount of residual sugar. The amphora contains a small amount of whole clusters for texture. Bottled without fining.

Dr. Edge

Peter Dredge is Dr. Edge. He is one of the most intuitive and talented winemakers on the Apple Isle.

With a wealth of experience garnered at wineries such as Bay of Fires, he has revitalised the Meadowbank label and returned it to its place as one of the must-watch vineyards in Tasmania.

Dr. Edge is his passion project where he can take risks and make Pinot Noir, Chardonnay & Riesling that truly excites him. His creativity can fly under the Dr. Edge banner and wines that walk a fine line of tension, funk and freshness invariably arise.

Only small batches of wine is produced, all made by hand, and typically they sell out in short order. Playful, pleasurable and remarkably thoughtful, the Dr. Edge creations are riveting things to drink and have rightfully earned cult status among collectors of Tasmania's finest.
