ABOUT THE WINE

In life, it is good to know what your position is.  History tells you how you got here while the future stretches over the horizon with all its possibilities and considerations.  This wine invites you to stay in the present and enjoy both.  On the Left-Hand Downwind leg of the flying circuit you have your end goal in sight but are still enjoying the freedom of flight.

This vineyard was selected to craft a wine for enjoyment rather than scrutiny.  The dark organic layer on the “bankies” is unique to this region and helps with water retention and nutrients in the harsh summer season. The block was planted in the early 80s and the roots have found their way to water by this time, yielding fruit that is consistently true to its environment.

This wine was made to either age for a couple of years or to be enjoyed today.
