The grapes were picked in the cool of the night to retain fresh, elegant fruit flavours. A combination of rotary and "headed down" open fermenters were used over 7 to 9 days in the fermentation process. Most of the ferments were held at 22°C and then drained and pressed at 2 Baume. This portion completed its fermentation in new and old oak barrels. Once dry and blended, the wine remained in new and old French and American oak barrels for a future I6 months.

Food Pairing: Serve with red wine glazed lamb and chargrilled capsicum and eggplant. Cheese platter and nuts. This wine has the flavour, structure and balance to be enjoyed now or offers added satisfaction from further cellaring.
