Fruit is sourced from the Montgomery Brothers Vineyard at Ellensbrook, the Glenmore and Bantry Bay Vineyard at Yallingup. All fruit was hand picked and then de-stemmed into open and static fermenters. Open ferments were hand plunged three times per day while static ferments were gently pumped over twice daily and then hand plunged twice daily towards the end. Maximum temperatures were set at 32C. Batches were left on skins for a range of times. Pressing times are based on tasting, the emphasis is on the preservation of good fruit characters. After pressing, all batches are racked to French oak barriques, limiting the use of new oak so as not to dominate the fruit aromas.
