Winemaking

This wine has been hand crafted using natural fermentation and minimal intervention. No fining was used in the making of this wine.

Hand picking commenced on March 14th, 2017. Grapes were chilled overnight then whole bunch pressed, and the juice transferred to a mixture of new and old French oak barrels. A portion of the grapes were fermented on skins to add texture and mouthfeel. Once dry, the wine was left to mature on lees until blending, where the wine underwent a single, gentle filtration before bottling.
