A favourable growing season, with good winter rains, a mild flowering and fruit set period and continued spring rainfall. Vines showed good balance of shoot vigour and moderate berry size. The ripening period that began late January was very cool, with some welcome rainfall in mid-February. The cold nights and mild sunny days in March slowed sugar accumulation, resulting in excellent fruit ripeness and intensity.

Viognier picked 18th April 2021.

Handpicked late in the season for maximum natural sugar and acid concentration. Whole bunches bag pressed, cold settled for 24hours. Racked to stainless steel tank for wild fermentation. Matured in old French oak barrels and kept on lees for 14 months.
