Gingin clone, whole berries and whole bunches wild fermented in tank, matured in French oak for 8 months (30% new). Some vintage conditions suit some houses better than others, and in my opinion, given the northerly position, this vineyard really shines in cooler years like 2021. This remains true to the house style of complex, worked and concentrated, but the cooler season has imbued the wine with spice nuance and delicacy of acidity. Both very good things. This is a wonderful wine, sporting a new label. Well played.

Pale yellow with green hue. A fragrant bouquet of white flowers, nectarine and pear with underlying cashew and citrus notes. Lovely toasty oak florals help lift to white flower bouquet. The palate is medium-full bodied with stone fruit and fresh citrus flavours and creamy biscuit characters from lees influence. Subtle oak sweetness adds to the richness and length of the palate. The wine has an elegant, refined structure and finishes with fine mineral acidity.
