grapes were sourced from selected vineyards in South Australia on a mix of well drained clay loam, limestone, stony and gravel soils. Once harvested, the fruit was brought into the winery where it was de-stemmed into fermenters. During fermentation they wine was pumped over/plunged regularly to help extract colour, fruit flavour & tannin. The wine then went through full malolactic fermentation, then fined using natural methods prior to bottling.
