Further information

After crushing and de-stemming, the must was chilled to 12°C. The free run juice was kept separate from the pressings juice, then cold settles. Once settled, the clear juice was racked and inoculated with selected white wine yeast and fermented at 12-15°C for approximately 13 days. At the completion of the alcoholic fermentation, the wine was racked off yeast deposits, stabilised, fined and filtered for bottling.

Vintage information

2017 was a vintage characterised by hot and dry conditions meaning vineyard management, including watering was paramount. The well maintained canopies allowed fruit to ripen beautifully without exceptional sun exposure. Whites are vibrant and fruit driven, while reds are showing exceptional depth of colour, tannin and flavour ripeness.
