Vineyard Notes
Situated in the heart of the cool climate Mount Benson region, the Norfolk Rise Vineyard is planted on 180 hectares of undulating coastal hills. Within 5 kilometres of the ocean at 37 degrees south of the equator, our Merlot is planted on near perfect “Terra Rossa” soils, providing an ideal level of nutrient and water retention.
Winemaker Notes
Picked off our 100% estate vineyards in March
the fruit was crushed and destemmed into stainless steel
fermenters. With a quick, cool ferment using Bordeaux yeasts
and moderate extraction we have achieved this medium
bodied, fruit driven style showing the best of our Mount
Benson terroir.
