Production notes

Description

The weather was kind to us in 2022, with fruit picked from our Nuriootpa and Craneford vineyards. We experienced a relatively cool growing season with only a few minor warm spikes allowing for a very gradual ripening pattern. As Cabernet is a later ripening variety, we are always hopeful the rain holds off until we can pick. Although we had a threat of rain as the season went on, we were able to hold the fruit on the vines to achieve the ripeness and flavour spectrum we look for. Craneford, in Eden Valley, at higher altitude is cooler and is always some of the latest fruit to come in.

We also have new plantings of three clonal selections of Cabernet Sauvignon, at our Nuriootpa vineyard, which are just beginning to show their varietal characteristics which is very promising!
