A boldly Pinot Noir and Meunier dominant Cuvée with just a soupçon Chardonnay, all hand picked off vines grown to a site made famous as one of the first sightings of a Tasmanian tiger Thylacinus cynocephalus.

There are twenty seven individual blocks, each situated on very different altitudes. All were established with northerly aspects, allowing vines to receive the greatest possible sunlight.
