The exclusive little vineyard is sited on part of a grazing propertry that has been owned and operated by the Mulligan family since 1937. The vines are planted on an elevated area of Terra Rossa soil over limestone. The soils are generally very stony. Some of the more austere parts of the vineyard are virtually pure rock. The vines that have survived on these stony areas produce relatively small tonnages compared to local averages. Small batches of hand picked grapes are fermented in open vats, basket pressed and barrel matured in climate controlled storage before being bottled on premises. Treated to an extended maturation in a selection of American and French oak hogsheads.
