The parcels of fruit were fermented in stainless steel vertical fermenters for four to six days at temperatures maintained between 26 to 30°C. The wine was then bag-pressed at 1° Baume and left to ferment until dry. It was then racked onto French oak for malolactic conversion, before being clarified via centrifuge into stainless steel storage. 25% of the blend was transferred to used French and American oak barrels for approximately four months of maturation. Once all parcels were completed, the final cuvee was carefully blended and prepared for bottling. 

Predominantly sourced from the vineyards in Padthaway, South Australia, where the soils are sandy loam over clay, formed on old lagoon sediments. These sandy soils lead to poor nutrient and water retention which helps to concentrate the flavours in the fruit. The vines are grown on single-wire trellises, ensuring an open canopy. Drip irrigation is used in the vineyards to manage the water supply and reduce evaporation, as water is applied directly above the roots. The fruit was harvested during the cooler nights to retain freshness.
