Rieslingfreak was founded in 2009 by John Hughes, out of a long love of Riesling. John grew up on his family's vineyard in the Clare Valley, a region famous for the variety, and what began as a passion project has grown to a portfolio of eleven Riesling styles.
The collection covers dry, sweet, sparkling and fortified Riesling, showing how versatile the grape can be, with fruit from the Clare and Eden Valleys. Belinda, known as 'The Freakette', joined in January 2021 as John's partner and an accomplished winemaker in her own right, with nearly 15 years of experience making white wines.
Sustainability guides the business, from vineyard to winery, for the future of the Clare and Eden Valley communities.
