Fruit was hand harvested in the cool of the morning and then chilled overnight prior to full destemming and crushing the following day. The must was left to macerate for 4 hours prior to gentle pressing. Around 50% of the juice was transferred directly to barrel ex-press, the balance roughly settled for 18 hrs before being filled to wood. Fermentation was undertaken by indigenous yeasts entirely in wood, around 70% new. Fermentation progressed at ambient temperatures and lasted 10 days and was followed by partial malo-lactic fermentation. The young wine spent the next 9 months on full yeast lees with only intermittent battonage prior to racking and bottling just prior to the ’22 vintage.

Adelaide Hills

The Adelaide Hills is one of the largest geographical wine regions in Australia, and amongst the most diverse in terms of climate, soil and topography. Because of this, many different varietals are planted here with the most dominant being Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris. It is generally thought of as a cooler region, especially when compared to neighbouring Barossa to the north and Mclaren vale and Langhorne Creek to the south.

NZ Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has been popular in Australia for a while now, but Adelaide hills Sauvignon Blanc (the most planted grape in the region) could be considered the Aussie Savvy Blanc. From www.adelaidehillswine.com.au about their Sauvignon Blanc: “Wines that are textured, edgy, vibrant and dry with exceptional fruit definition, length and crispness that marry superbly with summer seafood.”

You can also find some cool climate shiraz from the Adelaide hills, defying the more common big bold style that is usually seen in Australian Shiraz.
