Full bodied with great texture, layering and length.

Winery
Winery
The grapes from our vineyard are all handpicked in the early morning and fermented in 1 tonne fermenters where they are hand plunged 2-3 times daily. No yeast is added so it undergoes a “wild ferment”, maceration on skins occurring for 7-10 days. The wine is then pressed off the skins, using a basket press, into 1,2 and 3 year old French oak barrels to age for 18 months prior to bottling. Minimal fining and filtration are used.
Vineyard
Vineyard
Grown on our Shiraz vineyard established in 1997 on limestone over clay soils, this soil profile gives us ideal conditions for growing premium fruit. Combined with minimal irrigation requirements it results in small bunches being produced and therefore greater concentration of flavours. The block is located approximately three kilometres inland from the sea and situated west of McLaren Vale.
