Winemaking Notes
Early signs are this is a classic vintage and potentially one the best of the century thus far. Good winter rains provided us with slightly above average crops. A mild, dry and long summer prevailed and produced wines of great balance and structure. Excellent varietal characters and flavours across all varieties.
Sourced from a single vineyard in Willunga. Vermentino is well suited to our Mediterranean climate, producing lovely aromatic and vibrant fruit.
After an early morning pick in late Feburary, the wine is pressed off skins and the juice is transferred to tank for cultured yeast fermentation which lasted for 7 days. Some lees stirring throughout
