Description: Some 120 acres were planted 25 years ago at Bimbadgen - meaning "lovely views" - among the foothills of the Brokenback range in the Pokolbin region of the Hunter valley. These vineyards are managed to produce low yields (2 - 2.5 tonnes per acre) and are picked by hand. The Signature range is the pinnacle of the Bimbadgen Estate selection and today is one of the most respected names in the Hunter Valley. Fermentation temperatures are very low by European standards - 12 C for the whites and 18-20 C for the reds, both the Signature and Estate wines are matured in French and American barriques for up to one year. Grand Ridge and Bell Tower, named after the bell tower incorporated into the estate buildings, are made from fruit emanating from their other 100 acres of vines at Yenda in the Griffith area of New South Wales. Although the yields are higher the grapes are harvested at night and vinified with all the same care and attention to detail given to the premium wines.
