Grapes were specifically harvested whilst fresh and vibrant to make a genuine rosé wine. Shiraz was harvested on February 7th and the Grenache on February 14th, both varieties displaying crisp acidity and bright perfumed fruit flavours. Following crushing, the numerous lots of juice were in contact with the skins for 2 – 8 hours for subtle colour and flavour extraction. The juice was then slowly fermented at a cool temperature over 10-12 days ensuring maximum retention of aroma and fruitiness. Prior to bottling a small amount of unfermented juice was blended back to add a touch of natural residual sweetness
The 2025 vintage has delivered wines of exceptional quality, destined to rank among the finest. This warm and dry year was punctuated by significant growing season frosts, with rainfall from Winter through Summer reaching only two-thirds of the average. Two major frosts in September set the tone for a challenging yet rewarding season. Spring temperatures were 1 degree above average, while Summer was 2 degrees higher. The combination of warmth, dry conditions, and lower yields resulted in the earliest start and finish to vintage since our winemaking journey began in 2002. These steady ripening conditions ensured the vines remained healthy, producing grapes of outstanding quality and the resultant 2025 wines stand firmly in the upper echelon.
A selection of Grenache is combined with a portion of Shiraz to make a fruit-driven complex rosé. All vines are grown in sandy loam soil over deep red clay and are all hand pruned
