Darling Cellars Old Bush Vines come from specific old bush vines which are selected for their uniqueness in prominent terroir flavours. These vineyards are planted in the best terroir for the specific varietal. Vineyards are carefully monitored by the winemaker who ultimately decides when the grapes will be harvested. These grapes are handled separately in the cellar to preserve their natural quality and uniqueness.

Passion and Respect for these old vines, have led to these beautiful and special wines.
Darling Cellars OLD BUSH VINES Range is a dedicated concept from site selection, through to the final drop in the glass at the end of the bottle.
in the vineyard : Vineyard type: 43 years old Bush Vines, no irrigation
about the harvest: Yield: 4 t/ha
Balling at Harvest: 21°B
in the cellar : Made in the traditional style of Saignee – bleeding of juice. After destemming, all the free run juice is drained from the berries. This juice is settled overnight. Slow and cold fermentation takes place to preserve the delicate fruit flavours. The wine is aged on the fermentation lees, to add more complexity and structure.
