Winemaking

Vintage Conditions

The 2025 vintage in McLaren Vale was one of the driest growing seasons we've experienced since 2006, with warm, drought-like conditions prompting an early and compressed harvest.

A warm, dry spring led to early budburst and flowering. Fortunately our access to water reserves allowed healthy canopy growth. A moderate summer followed, with only a handful of days over 35°C, and just one day reaching 40°C.

These dry conditions brought welcome benefits - exceptionally low disease pressure, balanced yields, and fruit of outstanding quality, with whites that are vibrant and well-balanced.

Maker Notes

Picked early for bright and fresh characters, wholly stainless steel fermented. A small portion of Roussanne blended for mouthfeel and texture.
