Geology
Forty million years ago, with the forces of water and tectonic plate movement, Australia’s Murray River system was born. The third longest navigable river in the world. These events caused the inland flow of rich fertile sediment and soil layers. Now commonly referred to as the ‘Food Bowl of Australia’, it is Andrew Peace Wines’ main source of water and nutrients.
Soils
Nutritious sandy and clay earth provide Andrew Peace Wines with a soil type typical of Champagne and Burgundy, and ideal for both red and white wines.
Climate
More than 400km inland, the climate is semi-arid with hot summers and cold to mild winters. With a characteristics akin to a ‘continental climate’ not unlike Burgundy; and very unlike the typical maritime or Mediterranean climates of almost all other Australian wine regions.
