The grapes for this wine hail from selected sites and clones which promote greater aromatics and a more accessible palate. The vineyards are planted on ancient, granite-derived soils on the south and southeast-facing slopes. In total six clones of Shiraz are used, and each clone enriches the complexity of the final wine.
The grapes are hand picked and kept in cool conditions before fermentation. During fermentation, which is done by wild yeasts, the wine is mixed by hand. Once this is complete the skins are pressed in a traditional basket press and the wine is transferred to 500L second and third fill French oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation occurs in the barrel. The wine will spend more than a year in the barrel to improved maturity and expose more flavours.
