The northern area of the Barossa Valley has some of the oldest landscapes in the Barossa. At 200 million years old, these bed rocks have formed the soils in which the grape vines grow. It is also one of the early grape growing areas of the Barossa with many generational growers who are both traditional and attune to the needs of making their vineyards sustainable with modern viticultural thinking. A wet winter and spring provided plenty of water for the vines to access. Spring and early summer temperatures were mild and below average, resulting in long, even ripening. These ideal conditions for grape growing allowed us to make optimal picking decisions. The warm, dry days with cool nights during late summer and autumn provided us with pristine fruit.
