The 2025 harvest season started with above average rainfall over winter leading to good soil moisture heading into spring. Throughout spring we experienced warm and dry conditions presenting the vineyard with early shoot development and minimal disease pressure during flowering. As a result of the high soil moisture during the proceeding winter vine canopy health was strong. The warm and dry conditions continued throughout summer leading to an earlier than average start to harvest, whilst being quite a compressed harvest the low disease pressure and above average rainfall early in the season has led to wines with great acidity, balance and flavour and longevity.
