GROWING

  • Soil Type: Coarse, weathered granite 
  • Tonimbuk site

WINEMAKING

  • Hand-harvested and co-fermented in stainless steel for 48 hours, with a whole bunch of skin-contact
  • The wine was then pressed back into a single ceramic egg where it sat undisturbed for 14 months elevage
  • Bottled (without racking) directly from the vessel
  • Wild ferment, No SO2, No pumps, No additions, No oak
  • Bottled by gravity, Sealed with premium natural cork and beeswax

WHAT’S GOOD?

  • A delicately orange wine with a very refined and elegant nature to it
  • Granite soils gave the wines a lean and very mineral-driven nature, showing an abundance of energy with such delicate and precise structure
  • Great tannin, largely due to the Pinot Gris/Grigio element
  • The time in the tank on gross lees has given yet another layer of fine complexity to the wine
  • As pure a representation of site, place, and time 
  • Only 355 bottles were produced for this vintage
