The grapes are sourced from Grosset's Rockwood Vineyard in the Watervale subregion, a site farmed using certified organic and biodynamic practices.\u003c!--\/if--\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--\/for--\u003e\u003c!--\/comp--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--it--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\u003c!--comp--\u003e\u003c!--for--\u003e\u003c!--it--\u003e\u003c!--if--\u003eThe 2022 vintage experienced a notably cool growing season, following good winter and spring rainfall.

The Shiraz grapes are fermented whole and uncrushed, with fermentation beginning spontaneously through naturally occurring yeasts, without the addition of commercial yeast. The wine is bottled without fining and sees no oak ageing, preserving its natural expression and freshness.\u003c!--\/if--\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--\/for--\u003e\u003c!--\/comp--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--it--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\u003c!--comp--\u003e\u003c!--for--\u003e\u003c!--it--\u003e\u003c!--if--\u003eThe nose opens with delicate aromas of mulberry, black cherry and bramble.
