Complex with great longevity and majesty.
The hand-picked fruit was 100% destemmed and cold-soaked for four days before yeast inoculation. The wine spent 21 days on skins in open fermenters with gentle plunging. Post-fermentation, the wine was aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, of which 50% were new.

Winery | The vineyard is set in the classic cool-climate subregion of Red Hill at 146 metres above sea level. The grapes for this wine come from a north-facing vineyard on Paringa Road, planted in 1985. The soil is the typical red volcanic soil known as Ferrasol. The vines are trained on the distinctive Lyre or ‘U’ trellis system, which sits on an elaborate steel frame assembly. |
