The grapes for this wine were sourced from the meticulously attended Angove family vineyards and other premium Riverland growers. Soils are predominantly red sandy loam over limestone, on gently undulating east west ridges. Vintage was moderate and early season rains in spring lead to minimal requirement for irrigation with exceptional crops being set and substantial leaf cover which would be required to ripen the fruit to perfection. This year has been great for aromatic varietal expression, especially with the fruit dominant varieties such as Moscato. The harvest period was longer than usual resulting in a relatively late harvest starting in March.
