Vineyard - Fruit was sourced from the Rice vineyard near Stawell in the Grampians region. Garry Rice uses organic practices - in some years he takes it even further and uses no sprays at all. This is essentially down to good planning - he planted his vineyard on a site that doesn’t have the disease pressure that demands multiple sprays year after year. It was a lean year in the Grampians, low yields and late ripening (2 weeks later than usual).

Winemaking - Half of the grapes were fermented as a mix of whole bunch with destemmed fruit, with ferments being turned by hand. The other half was destemmed and plunged once a day until near dry. Time on skins was 15 days. Matured in a mix of second fill and older neutral french oak barrels for 13 months. Wild yeast fermented. Unfiltered and unfined. No adds apart from sulphur. Vegan friendly.
