Description
Fruit was sourced from the estate vineyard and four more sites across the Canberra District and Hilltops region (Murrumbateman, Young and Harden), with an average vine age of 18 years. The altitude ranges between 500 and 600m and the soil composition varies, from decomposed granite to red loamy clay.
The fruit was processed as whole berries with no pumps used, and saw wild fermentation and three weeks on skins. It was then pressed to four- and five-year-old French oak casks where it rested for 10 months on lees before it was bottled unfiltered.
