Harvest:Good winter rains set the vines up for the perfect start to the growing season with mild conditions continuing through from budburst to flowering. This allowed for good, even fruit set and low disease pressure. Harvest began in late January and continued in and even, unhurried pace into late March.
Winemaking:Crushed to both rotary and ‘sweeparm’ fermenters the grapes were then allowed to macerate for 2 days before inoculation and fermentation. Pressed off skins when optimum flavour and colour levels were achieved and allowed to go through the second malolactic fermentation.
Viticulture:From the Nanya Vineyard near Paringa, South Australia. The grapes are grown on sandy loam over limestone soils.
