Growing Conditions
Autumn and winter were dry and cool with low rainfall. The climactic conditions meant the start of the growing season was slightly delayed with a relatively mild summer, the warm days and cool nights with an absence of extreme heat, ensured the fruit was able to ripen evenly and the flavours intensify. White wines are looking solid this season showing lovely varietal flavours, backed by crisp natural acidity.
