Sandalford is located on property which formed part of Western Australia's second land title, it is one of the region's oldest and largest privately owned wineries. From vines planted to some of the Swan Valley's best vineyards, some very mature, up to fifty years of age, reflecting contemporary viniculture as expressed through the Element range. Immediately after harvest, fruit is destemmed, crushed and inoculated to choice yeasts. Cap management regimens and twice daily pumpovers are employed throughout the ferments for optimal extractions. Upon completion, batches are seeded for malolactic and treated to a term of age under a selection of seasoned French oaks before assemblage.
