The Vineyard Series matches specific varieties and sites to give you outstanding examples of single vineyard wines.

Fragrant and spicy with freshly picked strawberries and red currant fruits, hints of forest floor and sweet spice. Whole bunch notes just hover in the background. The palate is soft and juicy, vibrant and fresh with delicate silky tannins and a fine line of acidity holding it all in place. The red fruits and rose water cascade through the mouth interwoven and balanced. Fresh finishing and lip smacking. Divine!

The fruit for this wine was sourced from the north facing Willowlake Vineyard, sited in the red volcanic soils of Gladysdale.

A traditional winemaking approach was used to produce this wine – whole berry fermentation in open vessels for two weeks followed by a 10 month maturation in French oak barrels.

A cool spring wet spring, mild summer and a long, dry autumn with low crops has resulted in strong varietal character and fine persistent acidities.
