Our wine philosophy is simple ...keep it simple, natural and be passionate about every aspect. If our passion for this ever dries up we will simply stop doing it and do something else.
We are a small vineyard managed by people rather than machines.
As a family run business our children help us in the vineyard and run and play amongst the vines.
Harvesting is a gathering of friends, neighbours and their children.
We strive for high quality fruit and pick only at optimal ripeness, when the flavours, the acid and the mouth feel of the grapes are in perfect harmony.
Our quality starts in the vineyard using organic and biodynamic methods. By working with nature's cycles and rhythms we achieve the finest flavours.
We pick into small bins, handling the fruit as little as possible. The fruit is then lightly crushed into vats. Wild yeasts help the fruit express the subtleties of the terroir.
The wine is pressed and gravity fed to oak barriques for twelve months. In autumn the barrels are selected for the final blend.
Our philosophy is that of non intervention and for this reason we neither fine nor filter our pinot noir.
From beginning to end we do not compromise at any stage of our vintage.
