More Information

In the cellar

The grapes were crushed and destalked to allow for some skin contact. 80% of the juice was racked to barrels (25% new French oak/75% used barrels) and 20% to Amphora to complete the natural fermentation. Malolactic was avoided to retain freshness and bantonage occurred weekly. After 6 months the wine was removed from barrel and was stabilized before bottling.

In the vineyard

The grapes were picked from the old single bush vine vineyard. The grapes were picked in the morning for cooler conditions to protect the fruit from oxidation. Picking from bush vine requires a back breaking effort but it is worth it.

Ageing

This wine should keep for up to five years and the new style typifies the terroir it grows in.

Cultivar

Sauvignon Blanc

Food Pairing

This wine is versatile with foods and can be enjoyed with many foods especially seafood and curries.
