A low cropping warmer season with a gentle balance of flavour, texture and acidity. Quite fine and composed considering the relatively warm February.

From the Winery
Grapes are hand picked, whole bunch crushed, pressed and allowed to settle overnight. Turbid juice is then racked to French oak casks. Natural and full malolactic fermentation. Lees are stirred in late autumn and a little in winter and then left to rest until the finishing stages.
Vineyards include our Estate sections D8 (Dijon clones), Emu, Pistol, Amphi, Melba and Drive - all lovely sites. Lusatia Park at Woori Yallock for its steeliness and finesse. Viggers Vineyard at Tarrawarra for texture and weight.
