The wine sits in the glass like a smouldering ember; joyous, full of sunshine, reeking of apricots and Muscat and marmalade. It tastes completely decadent. Fiery and silky; sweet and sour." Winemaker Chris Alheit.

"We paid much attention to the viticulture that season. So it was, in the 2019 vintage we had a good sized crop that attained full ripeness by mid-March. Janus spread the grapes on wooden racks and on shade cloth. We let them dry outside for two full weeks, collecting the grapes on the 2nd April. The resulting wine was pressed for 5 days at full pressure, yielding a syrup of around 55 Brix. This juice fermented for a year, reaching just over 7% alcohol and a residual sugar of around 425g/l." Chris Alheit
