Talking points

• includes fruit from three vineyard sites, Truquilemu and Purapel
• ancestral farming by hand and horse, with traditional methods of the Secano Interior
• naturally fermented with native yeasts
• part barrel-aged and part tank aged over one winter (neutral barrels)
• 2017 was a year with frost early in Sept that reduced the crop. The summer was hot and even hotter during the bushfires in the neighborhood.
• we give each Single Ferment a name and as this was a red wine made white after the bushfires in 2017 for the first time we called it the Phoenix ferment for its having been born out of the ashes.
