Our longest running single site the Musk Creek vineyard offers us pure intensity year in year out. The 2022 vintage with its low yields, healthy fruit and steady cool late season ripening has allowed us a great insight to the capacity of this site.
A small section of the vineyard (10%) was hand harvested March 10th with the balance being again hand harvested March 28th & 29th. Whole bunch pressed and allowed to naturally settle overnight the wine was roughly racked to a mixture stainless (80%) and two Puncheons (20% total, one new) where it was allowed to ferment wild without the addition of sulphur. As with Feri Maris we feel the use of barrel ferment help frame the intensity of flavour and texture this site offers, show it off.
The Musk Creek Pinot Gris had regular batonage both in barrel and stainless. The wine was racked in mid-November, lightly polish filtered and bottled December 1st.
