ageing : Ready to be enjoyed now with the maturation potential to age further for three to five years.

The wines in our Vineyard Collection range are produced from the fruit of specific vineyard blocks, each with its unique character for its cultivar and terroir. Made in an elegant and new world style, these wines make the perfect accompaniment to any social occasion.

in the vineyard : Soil Type:Malmesbury shales
Age of vines:13 years
Average yield:8 tonnes per hectare
Irrigation: Dryland (natural rainfall)

about the harvest: Vintage: The 2024 harvest began two weeks earlier than the previous year due to unforeseen winds in late November and early December, resulting in a reduced yield. Despite this, elevated temperatures in early February necessitated an early grape harvest, with the anticipated quality remaining
exceptional.
Picking date: February 2024
Grape sugar: 23° Balling

in the cellar : After the grapes were de-stemmed, the berries were sorted to ensure that only the best fruit was used for this wine. Cold maceration of the skins was given for 48 hours to ensure maximum colour and flavour were extracted. The wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks for seven days with regular pump-overs. Malolactic fermentation and maturation took place over 18 months in barrel to develop a rich, complex, and wooded-style wine.
Wood maturation: 18 months in French oak barrels. 15% in first fill barrels.
Bottle maturation: One month in bottle.
