According to the producer, the grapes come from a hand-farmed single vineyard site in the cool Elgin Valley, known for stable maritime conditions and favourable Pinot Noir ripening. The wine is spontaneously fermented with natural yeasts in small open vessels, without enzymes, preservatives or stabilising agents. It then matures for 14–15 months in French oak, 10 % of which is new. Stylistically, it shows red berries, strawberries and fine spices, with a floral, light and juicy character and a savoury, meaty finish.
