about the harvest: Both the Sauvignon blanc and Viognier grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness to ensure complexity of flavour.

in the cellar : Both the Sauvignon blanc and Viognier grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness to ensure complexity of flavour. The Viognier fruit underwent a short period of skin contact before being pressed. After cold settling, the freerun juice was fermented in a stainless steel tank, while the press fraction went into an old barrel. The wine was left on the fine lees for 6 weeks before blending. The blend was lightly fined and only filtered at bottling.
