Selected premium vineyards experienced ideal growing conditions producing wines of high sugar and flavours. Cool nights providing ideal harvesting conditions.
The grapes were picked at between 13.5 to 14.0 Baume to produce the fruit flavours that are required to make this great wine. The Grapes were also picked during the night and fermented in an array of vessels to produce a different style of wines. A portion of the wine matured in 1 year and older French and American barrels for 6 months where the other portion was kept cool to preserve fresh fruity flavours. Careful tasting and blending, by our winemaker, help produce this wine of style and great value for money.
