Sourced exclusively from Block 15 (1.8 Ha), which lies amongst a north-facing gravelly ironstone outcrop where the North Maslin Sand geology comes to the surface. Hand-picked (29th March), 25% whole bunches, and the remainder has been destemmed, mechanical berry sorted, and crushed. Open fermenters and on skins for 16 days. A gentle maceration principle of wetting the cap and only draining and returning when reductive. Wild yeast ferment. No pressings are used in this wine. Kept on lees in 35% new French oak puncheons and 65% older French oak Puncheons for 9 months. We selected individual barrels blended and matured for 7 months in a 2-year-old French 25hL foudre—bottled in September 2020.
