Wine making: Two parcels of fruit, all from the Canberra District; Pinot Noir was machine

harvested crushed and soaked for 2 days before the ferment kicked off. Fermented dry and left to

soak for 2 weeks before being pressed off into old oak for 12 months. The Shiraz parcel was

hand picked and cold soaked for 3 days, fermented and plunged twice daily for two weeks. Left

to soak for a further week before being pressed off into old oak and left to develop for 12 months

and then blended with the Pinot Noir. Left to develop for a further 6 months and unfiltered before

being bottled with a slight acid adjustment. Every bottle is closed with a DIAM cork and wax

sealed by hand.
