Vineyard
This registered Single Vineyard site was deliberately chosen, owing to its specific terroir consisting primarily of sandy loam soils, for the crafting of the Pincushion Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc
Vinification
The grapes were harvested by hand at 22.5˚ to 24.5˚ Balling and handled reductively. The juice was cold fermented at 13˚to 15˚C to preserve the natural grape flavours. The wine was left on the lees for eight weeks before being racked.
