Winemaking | Selected from our organically certified sauvignon blanc and marsanne blocks from Springvale at 830m, these grapes were harvested on the 25th of March 2022 from 6.00am. Placed into slotted half tonne bins and taken directly to the winery. These whole bunches were then moved into open stainless steel fermenters for co- fermentation. Wild fermentation started while the grapes were fully intact. After 14 days the carbonic maceration was finished, and the fruit was gently pressed into stainless steel tanks where Lees were stirred through fortnightly for 4 months to increase the mouthfeel. The wine was passed through a rock filter prior to bottling.
