One of the wettest and coldest winters provided a delayed start to the season. The ample soil moisture allowed healthy canopies to flourish. Some further spring rain at flowering reduced crop levels; however, the loose bunch set was a blessing and allowed intense flavour development. Some nice sunny weather helped the vines catch up on their development leading into harvest, with only about a two-week delay on average. Intermittent rain and heat events meant that the viticulture team needed to be on song. It was tough, but the result was some intensely flavoured grapes (from the low crops and more extended growing season) that were perfectly balanced.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe fruit was hand harvested from select centre rows and cold soaked for 7 days in open fermenters before the commencement of fermentation, inccoculated with yeast RC212 and then a combination of rack \u0026amp; return and pump overs. The wine was pressed at dryness and matured in 100% French oak (30% new) for 18 months.\u003cbr\u003eBarrels from coopers Tremaux, St Martin \u0026amp; Francois Freres\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAppearance: Deep violet colour.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAroma: Aromatics of blueberry, violets, and pepper.
