Soils beneath the Memsie Water Whell site are deep ripped before planting. Vines are hedged trellised, exposing grapes to the sun for maximum ripeness. All plantings are irrigated by the nearby Loddon river with ground level mini sprays. Red wine grapes are planted on heavy clay soil interspersed by pieces of limestone. Shiraz is harvested and crushed into fermenters, the caps are plunged and pumped over thrice daily for optimal extraction. After passing through a membrane press and completion of malolactic, a percentage of the wine is treated to micro oxygenation, the balance is transferred to a selection of American oak hogsheads for a term of maturation and the final assemblage.
