Due to an unusually warm winter, 2024 growing season started 3 weeks earlier than expected. The warmer temperatures and reduced but steady rainfall through the growing period was a contrast to V23, these optimal conditions lead to beautiful, high quality grapes. Harvesting commenced at Butcher’s Hill in early March with the House Block Pinot Noirs, and concluded with the Cordon Cut Riesling at Butcher’s Hill. Exceptional quality fruit and no pest or disease presence lead us to expect great things from the 2024 season.
Fruit sourced from the Tamar Valley, hand picked in the early hours of the morning at low temperatures to maintain freshness and fruit flavour. 24 hours of skin contacted before pressing to tank for fermentation in stainless steel. Inoculated with TXL yeast, and matured on lees for 3 months prior to bottling.
