About Alkoomi
Family run and operated vineyard in Frankland River, Western Australia. The original 1220 hectare property was purchased by Sandy's grandparents, Vic and Netta Lange, in 1946 and initially operated as a mixed grain and livestock farm. It was grandma Netta who chose the name "Alkoomi" for their rugged property, on land over two million years old – a local Aboriginal word meaning "a place we chose".
Production note
The Riesling from our estate grown fruit was harvested over 12 days in the early hours of the morning in late March. The free run juice of each parcel is fermented separately. The resulting wine is a fine-tuned blend created from parcels including the original planting of 1971, through to a block of Geisenheim clone, planted in 2003.
