Vineyards from several vineyards were selected from Northern Heathcote. The ancient red Cambrian soils are ideal for dark fruited, serious red wines like Woodfired Shiraz.

Destemmed and fermented at 25-30°C over 7-10 days. Pressed and matured in vats and casks for 8 months. Racked and aerated regularly to soften the wine. Vineyards carefully selected for a balance of fruit weight and ripeness.
