in the vineyard : Situated on the northern most point of our boundary the Michael Sauvignon Blanc vineyard typifies our approach in treating each of our vineyards as individuals.
The steep 20m inclination is further embellished by significant undulations whilst a south easterly ocean breeze comes directly into the vineyard and provides a welcome, natural freshness.
Such are the unique variations within this plot we have sub-divided it into quarters. Planning its management programme to create and provide the widest possible palette from which to define the final distinctive character.
