The intensity of fruit in Cameron Vale mark it as being from a very special site. Unique microclimes and soil permit varietal characters to fully develop, yielding grapes of intense concentration and rich flavour. After crushing and de stemming, juices are vinified on skins for a week, temperatures peak at 26C early on in the ferments before being brought down to 22C. A quarter of the components are left on skins for a month, adding structure and enhancing the colour. Following completion and an extended maceration, parcels are treated to full malolactic in barrel. The assembled wine is then transferred into a high proportion of new and seasoned French and American oak barrels for eighteen months maturation.
