The renowned Chalmers Heathcote Vineyard is situated on an eastward slope, enriched by the region's iconic red Cambrian soils. This fruit specifically originates from the lower vineyard, characterized by its deep red clay-loam composition. While Chalmers is committed to adhering to organic farming practices when feasible, they maintain transparency in instances when deviations occur.
Of the harvested fruit, half was pressed into tanks, while the remaining was destemmed and allowed a 3-day soak. Subsequently, it was transferred to seasoned French oak barrels for fermentation, a process that spanned an extended month. The wine remained on lees for five months prior to bottling. This vintage underwent fermentation with wild yeasts and was bottled unfiltered and unfined. Only a trace amount of sulphur was added, ensuring its authentic character.
