Viticulture

Viticulture

The 2017 growing seasoned for the Barossa started with a wetter than average winter and spring. This, combined with below average temperatures in December, January and February, resulted in a later harvest than we've seen in many years. With the good soil moisture and cooler temperatures the grapes ripened more slowly, enabling a gradual accumulation of sugars and flavours, producing full flavoured wines which retained their natural acidity and freshness.
