Made in a traditional 'Blanc de noir' style, white wine made from red grapes.

in the vineyard : We experienced consistent winter showers with slightly higher recordings of rainfall, to the long-term average. The flowering and berry set was challenging with high humidity from odd showers raising the disease pressures. This resulted in slight unevenness in the bunches. The ripening period experienced very cool nights and lovely warm days. There were three periods of heat waves but all under 2 days, leaving a minimal effect on the bunches. The bunches remained healthy, and the cool nights made for a rather late season. The earlier varietals show good concentration and flavour whereas the later varietals are fresher and a little more restrained, due to coolness and late rains providing conservative ripeness levels.
