The Vineyard Collection Wines are made from specific vineyard blocks, each with its unique character for its cultivar and terroir. The wines are made in an elegant and new-world style that makes the perfect accompaniment to any social occasion.

in the vineyard : The grapes were harvested from 27-year-old and 28-year-old bushvine vineyard blocks in the Coastal region. Harvesting took place in February at a minimum of 25° Balling in the early morning when it was still cool. The soil, a combination of decomposed granite and Malmesbury shales, is deep and strong in structure with no irrigation used, thus solely relying on winter rainfall.

in the cellar : After the grapes were de-stemmed, cold maceration took place for two days. The wine was then fermented in stainless steel tanks for five days with regular pump-overs. Maturation took place for twelve months in 300- and 500-litre French and American oak barrels. A combination of old and new oak barrels was used, with about fifteen percent new oak barrels. Once bottled, the wine was aged further for one month before being released.
