Managed using Biodynamic principals and the results have been noteworthy. By using biodynamic composts and preparations the quality of the soils has improved dramatically over the years. Difficult weeds disappeared and were replaced by new, soft and beneficial weeds. Through biodynamic philosophies the plants and environment follow their innate rhythms and can flourish naturally.

Fermentation took place in oak and stainless steel vessels with 10% of the grapes de-stemmed. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered.

The wine was matured in oak vessels (19% new) for 10 months.
