Winemaking
Hand-picked Roussanne from Sellicks Hills, biodynamic Grenache Blanc from Kangarilla.
Both varieties are hand picked and fermented separately. Roussanne is whole bunch pressed, lightly settled and wild fermented in French oak. Grenache is oxidatively handled prior to wild ferment in barrel. The two components blend prior to bottling.
