Looking to the family estates of Gravner and Radikon for inspiration, this wine sees a 14-day maceration and 14 days on skin, an approach traditionally reserved for red wine. Extended maceration is uncommon when making Chardonnay however we believe it offers a more complex mouthfeel, a pronounced nose and developed colour.

The fruit was picked, given a gentle foot crushing and allowed to macerate for 24 hours before basket pressing into neutral French barrique. The juice was wild fermented to dryness over ten days. The wine was then transferred to Stainless steel and left to rest for four months before bottling. Wonderful growing conditions in 2021 wine has balanced acidity

BOLD | BLUE FRUITS | EARTHY
This Shiraz and the 2019 vintage marked the first year Lachlan and Joshua produced wine together. Taking a straightforward approach, this first vintage focussed on considered winemaking, fruit character and drinkability.
How does it taste...
Distinctive black fruit, stewed plum, earthy beetroot and blueberry. Whole bunch pressing provides a subtle green peppercorn note. Medium bodied with a creaminess on the palate, delicate tannin.

The influence of the legendary Rhone Valley styles, including the wines of Cornas, St.Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage, where a high percentage of whole bunch is common, has driven our approach for this 2019 vintage. This winemaking style gives grippy texture and an herbaceous quality. A decision to pick the fruit earlier for the DILF Shiraz resulted in fresh acidity and lower alcohol.
