Vineyard Notes
A near-perfect growing season with a warm and dry spring providing excellent conditions for flowering. One of our warmest Decembers on record, advancing fruit development. A slightly milder January was perfect for steady ripening, which led to an early red harvest. The fruit was picked in exceptional condition, with intense colour and concentration supported by fine, silky tannins.
