Description

 The Blend - Zibibbo, Grenache Blanc & Vermentino.

The blend of varieties is also quirky! We have used Zibibbo, Grenache Blanc and Vermentino. All three varieties came from vineyards that were hand pruned and managed in a sustainable manner.  

The Producer

The Dare to Dream - Ashley & Holly Ratcliff

In 2003, we purchased our first vineyard in Barmera, South Australia. Our vision was to plant, nurture and make wine from grape varieties that were best suited to Australia’s warm and dry climate. Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot quickly made way for Nero d’Avola, Montepulciano, Tinta Barroca, Fiano, Vermentino and many other Mediterranean grape varieties.

Our vision became reality and in 2019, we were awarded a five star rating in the 2020 James Halliday Wine Companion and again in 2021, also listed in the Top 10 upcoming wineries in Australia.

The secret behind Ricca Terra’s premium wines is to use grape varieties that are better suited to the warm and dry climatic conditions of the Riverland. The implementation of viticulture practices that strive for quality, practices such as crop thinning, hand pruning and hand harvesting.

Ricca Terra is recognised for its innovation, leadership and vision, which helps contribute to the future reputation and excitement of Australian Wine.

Winner of the Gourmet Traveller Viticulturist of the Year, we have challenged tradition and forged lasting change with our vineyards & wines.
