GROWING SEASON

The 2024 Barossa Valley vintage will be remembered as an almost perfect year, warm, dry with a few days of heat in March. Whites ripened quickly, retaining good fragrance and natural acids early. Whites and Rose’ look amazing. We have very high hopes for the vintage in the years to come.
