The fruit was harvested in the cool of night to retain maximum fruit flavour. The juice was cool fermented on skins then pressed into stainless steel to optimise colour and flavour. The wine was then matured on French oak for a few months for just a hint of oak character and to add depth and complexity prior to blending and bottling.
The 2020 growing season was characterised by dry and warm weather; although the summer had minimal rain and some of the mildest conditions seen in the past 20 years, the region enjoyed steady fruit development and low disease pressure across the board. Whilst some strong winds during flowering reduced crop levels, our 2020 wines have distinctive varietal flavours with bright, spicy reds and clean, aromatic whites
