Vintage conditions
The 2015 Tasmanian wine vintage will be a much sought after one, based on high quality and not much of it! The vineyard produced clean fruit at low to moderate Baume with high natural acidity, exhibiting excellent varietal characteristics.
Vinification details
Grapes were de-stemmed and crushed before cold soaking for three days. Fermentation followed in open vats for seven days before pressing into French oak for maturation. After 14 months of maturation the wine was blended and bottled.

That Anthony Murphy magic is on full display here: first, finding the grapes; second, handling them with such skill; and third, managing to sell the wine at this price.
