Seppelt has pioneered vineyard plantings in far flung districts, always on the lookout for unique terrains which produce fine wines. Drumborg Vineyard remains one of the most southern sites on Australia's mainland. The yields reflect cool climate viticulture, the refreshing maritime winds and rich soils. Disease control and canopy management are always crucial to the vintage. Yields are often low but the traditionally meagre crops are of high to excellent quality. The focus during vinification is to maximise clean fruit intensity. This is achieved by transporting the fruit in small batches and processing quickly to prevent oxidisation, followed by a cool temperature controlled vinification.
