Our approach is rooted in classical, old-world traditions, focusing on Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay - the benchmark varieties of Margaret River. We aim to craft wines that express their unique origins with purity, balance, elegance, and finesse, rather than imposing a heavy winemaking signature.
Exceptional wine begins with exceptional fruit. We partner with leading growers in prime vineyard sites, ensuring that only the highest-quality grapes reach the winery. Every decision we make is about preserving the integrity of the fruit from vine to bottle.
We rely solely on indigenous yeasts, naturally present on the grape skins, to ferment each wine. A week before harvest, we hand-select pristine bunches to create a petit cuvée - a small, vibrant fermentation that acts as a starter for the main ferment. This traditional method ensures a seamless, natural fermentation while avoiding the lag phase that can lead to spoilage in new-world wild ferments.
All fruit is hand-harvested and gently processed using a basket press - the most delicate method to extract juice without harsh tannins. White grapes are pressed as whole bunches, yielding bright, clear juice that goes straight to barrel for fermentation. Reds are destemmed directly into open fermenters without pumping, keeping the berries intact to control extraction. Cooler fermentation temperatures, gentle hand plunging, and soft basket pressing result in wines with refined tannins - eliminating the need for fining or heavy filtration.
Time is a crucial ingredient in our wines. Each wine is aged in our cool, temperature-controlled cellar, where it is racked only once by gravity, avoiding mechanical intervention. Our wines are bottled unfined, unfiltered and unadjusted, with only a modest addition of sulfur for stability.
By embracing these time-honored techniques, we capture the true essence of each vintage, region, subregion and vineyard block, delivering wines of authenticity and distinction.
