The grapes come from Wilyabrup, from dry-farmed vineyards with old granite and gravelly sandy loam over a lateritic subsoil. They were hand-picked on 12, 15 and 21 February. Fermentation took place with natural yeasts in stainless steel, after which the wine remained on the skins for 5–11 days and matured for eight months in oak barriques, 23 % of them new. The nose shows ironstone, cigar box, sage, red pepper, mulberry, violet and rose. On the palate, wild red fruit and blackcurrant combine with dark chocolate, fine-grained tannin, cedar and sandalwood. The 2024 vintage was particularly hot, dry and early.
