The Reschke family first settled in the Limestone Coast district in 1906, establishing themselves as prime Hereford graziers. In 1989 Burke Reschke, fourth generation in the family decided to develop the farmland into vineyards, which in turn produced exceptional fruit, as well as a number of Australia’s icon wines.
Reschke is committed to producing superior wines from meticulously managed vineyards in the heart of Coonawarra. Optimal vineyard soils comprised of thin layers of rich red loams over ancient limestone provide the bare requirement for growth without indulging the grapevine’s natural tendency for vigour. Hungry soils combined with rigorous hand pruning restrict yields to ensure richly flavoured fruit. Reschke ‘Vitulus’, Latin, meaning ‘bull calf’, is skilfully crafted to drink well at release and reward those with patience from a short stay in the cellar.
