The estate is planted entirely to Cabernet Sauvignon. We grow three clones – 337, 4 and Weimar
– on two root stocks: 110R and 3309. The vines are trained in the double cordon method on a
single fruiting wire and cordons trained to either side of the trunk. This configuration prevents
excessive sunlight exposure, so the sugars don’t run up before the grapes get a chance to fully
ripen. During the growing season we drop close to half of the fruit to select only the best clusters
and keep the vines in balance. A single wine from this vineyard, our Estate Cabernet Sauvignon.
Production runs between 1,100 and 1,400 cases, depending on the year.
