Hand-picked and destemmed to tank, fermented wild and punched down once a day, it was then soaked on skins for four weeks before being pressed to barrel.

With healthy yields, ideally timed rainfall, and ripening season temperatures, it was an idyllic season for cool climate wines. Chardonnay was a highlight the best in several years. Pinot Noir, enteral, perfumed, and outstanding. Higher yields and cooler conditions, favoured Shiraz and Cabernet, producing outstanding wines.
