The Adelé range has a dedicated focus on Natural and Biodynamic principles, which revolve around the guiding philosophy of minimal intervention in both the vineyard and winery. The wines are all fermented from indigenous yeasts, using skin contact and whole bunches. No sulphur is used and the wines are 100% unfiltered.
They are produced in genuine small batches, with an average production of only 100 dozen per year. Winemaker Ben Ranken has just been named a Young Gun Finalist in the 2019 Young Guns of Wine Awards.
Whole berries wild-fermented, 70+ days on skins, matured for 18 months in used French oak.
Fruit grown at Heathcote. 100% whole berries, 50+ days on skins, 18 months in old French oak. The colour, aromas, and flavours and are all distinctly varietal, albeit at the ripe and sweet-fruited end of the spectrum. The winemaking approach has been particularly successful achieving the distinctive tannin profile so pivotal to quality nebbiolo.
