Hand harvested from estate 18-year-old vines with root systems over three feet deep that had to work
for every inch through our well-drained, rocky schist and sandstone ancient seabed soil that naturally
does not encourage high vigour. This soil is why we bought our property in 2004, very different from the
typical water-holding clay loam that dominates the north ridge of our valley. We encourage a living soil
supported by our organic practices so that the special terroir flavours are accentuated, and this vintage
shows it off with pronounced mineral texture and a touch of saline.

Aged over the winter in stainless steel and bottled in the spring, finished dry to showcase its minerality.
