Winemaking ...
a combination of tradition and the latest techniques.

Our vines benefit from sustainable agricultural methods.

They are all handpicked during a two week period, with about 30 harvesters picking two acres a day.
The whole of the stalk is taken off to avoid any herbaceous flavours and to create rounded tannins.
The grapes are then macerated for 12 – 13 days before soft pressing develops complex aromas, a pleasant colour and smooth tannins.All our wines are estate bottled; a screw-cap is used for export.
