Fruit was sorted in the vineyard and again at the winery before being pressed as whole bunches directly into 500-litre puncheons, where indigenous yeast took over with no temperature control. Seven months on gross lees built richness slowly, a couple of barrels went through malolactic, and the new oak component sits at fifteen per cent, well integrated. A cooler season gave a touch more freshness than the year before, with the balance between fruit weight and structure holding firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCitrus, white flowers and stone fruit, wrapped in a round texture with snappy acidity and a savoury, salty close.
