Vinification details

The grapes were picked during the cool of the night, de-stemmed and pumped into the press. Only the best quality free run juice was taken off, cold settled then later racked to ferment. The ferment was carried out with selected yeast to enhance the Sauvignon Blanc varietal characters. Post fermentation, the wine was stabilised, clarified and bottled.

Vintage conditions

The 2015 growing season was close to perfect with mild dry weather producing excellent fruit. The mild season allowed a longer ripening period which resulted in good flavours and better balance.
