Not surprisingly, the site at Lethbridge was selected based on scientific principles such as soil type, degree days and other climatic indicators, yet when the three partners first explored the property they discovered an ancient old wooden fermentation vat in one of the old sheds. Discussion with the previous owner (Ivor Perdrisat) revealed that his family, Swiss in origin, had planted a vineyard on the exact site back in the 1870's before the discovery of phylloxera in the region. The old wine vat has been reincarnated as a beautiful timber tasting bench in the cellar door. This story is compelling in the connection between traditional wisdom and modern science.


Fruit from Drumborg (Henty). This release is towards the sweeter end of off-dry instyle which is worth noting. Ripe Autumnal fruits (apples, pears, quinces etc) provide the essential aromas and flavours, with just a hint of wild honey. The dimension of the mouthfeel, and the brilliantly fine and lingering acidity are the wine’s most distinguishing and enticing features.
