Carefully selected from vineyards across the Clare Valley.

Vintage Conditions

A dry, cool autumn in 2021 lead into good winter rains. Above average spring falls gave way to a very cool, dry summer of 2022. These conditions slowed the ripening of the grapes, resulting in full flavours and good natural acidities. Overall conditions were reminiscent of those seen a decade ago, ideal for the variety making it a rare vintage where quantity is good, and quality exceptional.

Winemaking

Each variety is harvested separately at optimum flavour ripeness and vinified in small open fermenters, where time-honoured techniques of hand plunging and basket pressing are used to gently extract colour, flavour and tannin from the skins. Once pressed, each batch is matured for twelve months in seasoned French oak before the final blend is assembled.

    A concentration of red plums, cherries & earthy tones all colliding together. Medium bodied with a savoury, spicy backbone, layered with subtle smoke & earthy tones. Silky, plush tannins & a long, generous finish. This wine evolves in the glass, showing fine aspects of each variety with flawless transitions - the hallmark of an exceptional blend.
