Winery & Vintage Info
"Surprises aren’t really something that I like, in fact after 20 years in the wine industry, you would think that nothing surprises me anymore, but every year it seems that the season does.
Once again there was high disease pressure, which was partly a carry-over from the previous season, compounded by the intermittent rain and weather events. There also wasn’t the heat that we have seen in previous years, no days above 40 degrees, but none-the-less the season resulted in with the whites and reds ripening at the same time, and organised chaos of vintage once again upon us.
Our first pick was on the 12th February, and our last on the 21st March, so a speedy six weeks and we had everything into the Winery.
Yields were overall slightly below average, but quality is looking good, with what I would consider a very good year for the whites overall and selected parcels of reds are outstanding.
Comparing vintages seems pointless, as every year brings with it its own set of challenges, and 2024 was no different. The final decision is yours as our 2024 are released, when you will be able to enjoy for yourself the outcomes of another challenging but always rewarding, season."
