Throughout the growing season, the team monitor grapes reaching full ripeness. Fruit is harvested in the cool early mornings to capture and retain all the characteristics of premium Sauvignon Blanc displaying a wonderful array of flavours, ranging from sweet tropical fruits through to the fine crisp expression of snow peas. Parcels are individually destemmed and crushed, chilled and treated to a gentle airbag pressing with the free run fractions kept separate to highlight the quality of fruit. All fermentations are run cool, with strict temperature control enabling the retention of freshness and vitality. After extensive trials, the final wine is assembled on the basis of flavour profile and outstanding varietal character.
