ageing : Enjoy in its youth.
in the vineyard : There are two sections of this 17 year-old Sauvignon Blanc vineyard - bush vines planted in 2.8 metre rows, yielding a very small crop, and an adjacent trellised block yielding slightly more. The vineyards reached full ripeness in mid-February and were harvested by hand into lug boxes.The Sémillon grapes, obtained from a neighbouring farm, were grown under similar conditions to the Sauvignon Blanc.
Growing Region: Sir Lowry’s Pass
