The Wines...

Wine Making Philosophy “Wine making starts in the vineyard” We select varieties that we know will grow well and give grapes of the highest possible quality. Please see below for details...

Great importance is put on keeping vines healthy rather than having to treat disease with expensive chemicals. This, is our opinion, is a far more cost effective management system and gives the best possible quality of fruit at the end of the season.

Our vineyard management centres on giving the vines the nutrients that they need, the optimum leaf to fruit ratio and favourable conditions in the micro climate.

Careful positioning of windbreaks to give protection from wind has to be balanced with well-kept ground and vine canopy in order to allow airflow. This minimises the risk of fungal diseases.

Good grapes can make good wine. We therefore make every effort to ensure grapes arrive at the winery as quickly as possible after picking, in the best possible condition. Hand picking by trained pickers helps to minimise the amount of stalks and rot that accompanies the grapes, and this means that cleaner, purer juice is achievable from the press.

In the winery, our policy of problem prevention is very much to the forefront.

We ensure that yeasts are adequately supplied with nutrients and that they are given the conditions that they need in order to work efficiently without producing off flavours.

Temperatures are kept as low as possible in order to preserve fruit. Cold stores are used to naturally clear and settle wines, and filtration is therefore kept to a minimum. This allows as much of the natural grape character through to the bottle as possible.
