Our Review
Pikes is a family affair, established in the '80s by Andrew, Neil and Cathy Pike with support from their parents Merle and Edgar. A generation on, Neil Pike has retired after 35 years as chief winemaker and Andrew’s sons Jamie and Alister have come on board (Jamie as managing director, Alister to run the craft brewery that opened in ’14). Riesling inevitably makes up half of all plantings; shiraz, cabernet, sangiovese, pinot grigio and tempranillo dominate the other half. Pikes’ flagship wines are the Merle Riesling and EWP Shiraz, named after Merle and Edgar, and only made in exceptional vintages. Winner of the People's Choice Award in 2022 and 2023. -TYSON STELZER
