Sourced exclusively from Block 12 (2.3 ha) which sits on an east facing, ironstone sandy outcrop. Hand-picked, 20% whole bunches and 30% mechanical berry sorted. 50% crushed in open fermenters and on skins for 15 days and plunged. Wild yeast fermented. No pressings are used in this wine. Exclusively matured in 25hL French oak Foudre for 16 months.
"I like this. A wine that embraces a more medium-bodied, compact and restrained archetype, defined by spicy lithe grape tannins as much as McLaren Vale fruit. A southeast-facing site of ironstone. Green olive tapenade, clove, pepper grind and salumi mingle with succulent red cherry, mescal and blue fruit allusions. The tannins, a spindle of spicy, pithy chewiness, attenuated and polymerised by gentle agitation in the right oak (French foudres for 16 months). A strong regional statement. A benchmark, too, for those seeking savouriness over mere amplitude and ripeness. An exercise in fine tannin management. 95 points." - Ned Goodwin MW (Halliday Wine Companion)
