Farming Method: Verdejo & Sauvignon Blanc were both picked from single blocks on 9th March with Fiano being harvested from a single block on 25th March 2022 from the Higher Plane vineyard
Growing Conditions: A wet winter & spring impacted fruit set, leading to reduced yields. Yet, 2022 was an outstanding vintage. Warm, dry conditions in summer & autumn provided exceptional growing & ripening conditions. Bird pressure was greatly reduced due to strong flowering of native flora. Remarkable quality
Maker Notes: A blend of 68% Fiano, 30% Verdejo & 2% Sauvignon Blanc. The Verdejo was wild fermented on skins for 5 days to add both complexity & phenolic structure, & also to showcase the unique expression of fruit. Pressed to tank, briefly settled, & racked to barrel to finish fermentation. Matured for 5 months in neutral, large format French oak. Unfined. Bottled on 7th November 2022
