The fruit was selective harvested and pumped to the fermenter with many whole berries in tact. The cool temperature of the fruit allowed a slow start to fermentation, once inoculated, the ferments were pumped over and plunged twice a day, temperature was held around 25°C to prevent over extraction of tannins locked in the skins. The wine was then transferred to barrel for malolactic fermentation allowing a soft integration of the grape and oak tannins. After the desired amount of barrel maturation the wine was fined then bottled.

A cool spring resulted in a slightly later harvest. Higher than average summer temperatures in January and February assisted in ripening but also resulted in bunch variation between each vine. The fruit for this parcel showed excellent varietal flavour and concentration with the most divine tannins structure. As a result this wine exhibits all the hallmarks of classic Margaret River Shiraz
