VINTAGE CONDITIONS
It has been noted as one of the best growing seasons in recent years, with a wet winter allowing the vines to produce a healthy canopy, and mild temperatures and periodic rain providing good growing conditions. Very little heat stress was experienced across the growing regions. A cool and dry summer sustained even ripening and allowed viticulturists and winemakers to harvest grapes at their optimum fruit expression.
WINEMAKING
The fruit was harvested in the cool morning and held cold after crushing for a period of cold-soak to ensure gentle extraction of the fruit characters. The ferment was kept cool and the wine pressed off skins into oak to complete fermentation. Blending and maturation in barrels and stainless steel tanks before stabilisation and filtration.
