WINEMAKER’S NOTES
100% barrel fermented using wild yeast before 27 months of maturation in a selection
of French oak barrels.
Selected bunches from our cabernet franc were berry sorted before a 10 day cold
soak. Berries were transferred to 100% new French oak barrels and allowed to
ferment slowly at low temperatures. This wine consists of mainly free run juice with
some press. Wine will continue to develop in bottle over the next 7 years. Limited
production of 120 x 1.5l magnums and 2635 x 750ml bottles.
