Region: Macedon Ranges
Sub-region: Romsey
Vineyard: Doug's Vineyard is located in the cool, sub-region of Romsey, approximately 1 hour (by car) north-west of Melbourne. The vines were planted in the 2000s, and sit at an elevation of 530m on a North facing slope at the foothills of the Cobaw Ranges. There is a mixture of clones - predominantly MV6, along with 114 and 115. The soil is volcanic rocky basalt.
Winemaking: The grapes were handpicked on 26 April 2025 and delivered straight to the winery. A small portion was whole bunch fermented in Amphora and another small portion whole berry fermented in Amphora; the rest was de-stemmed, crushed and fermented in an open fermenter for 10 days with daily punch downs. Post press, the wine was transferred to a mixture of French oak barriques and Amphora for aging for 14 months. No new oak was used. Bottled in December 2024, the wine has not been fined, nor filtered.
Harvest: 26 April 2023
Quantity: 112 dozen
