Vinification details

The grapes were picked during the cool of the night to maintain fresh varietal flavours, then de-stemmed and pumped into the press. Only the best quality free run juice was taken off; then clarified before adding yeast. The fermentation was carried out at cool temperatures and fermented until dry. Post fermentation, the wine was stabilised, clarified and bottled.

Vintage conditions

The 2016 vintage was a very condensed vintage producing good quality whites and reds; a very warm spring was followed by a relatively mild summer with no prolonged heatwaves.
