Critic tasting note: (2019 vintage) "Complex, smoky nose of hawthorn, grilled pineapple, dried lemon, ash, flint and cedar. Full-bodied, but refined, with tight, elegant layers. Phenolic. Excellent backbone of acidity to balance the concentrated fruit and spice. Vivid and long. Drink or hold. Screw cap." - James Suckling

Producer Notes
A selection of the most unique and striking vineyard sections, recognised for its innovative winemaking, al dente ripeness and distinguishing ‘Heytesbury’ character.
Drinking Window: 2016-2030
Vineyard Notes
Our most unique small vineyard sections where the Gingin clone on specific aspect and soil interplay in such a way to ignite very special varietal and wild yeast influence.

Winemaking
A slightly later harvest held back by late January rain reached a subtle and precisely balanced structure of alcohol and acid line with the most delicate of flavors held tightly, resulting in beautiful restraint and balance. Natural MLF was allowed to complete. Hand-harvested, whole-bunches were pressed and transferred direct to barrel as unclarified juice. Only natural yeasts from the vineyard fermented the wine and was nurtured in our cellar for 15 months, 9 of which were in oak with some lees stirring. 100% Gingin clone and true to Heytesbury perfume and structure. A savory, delicate and beautifully structured, complex wine in a cooler, slightly later harvest year.
Ageing
French oak barrique 56% new, 44% 1-3 year old (includes 6% in 1 year old Mercurey) 15 months. 9 months in oak, 6 months blended in tank.
