This weeks update, Phil and Tim got some of the vines ready for grafters from @graftingaustralia to graft over some of our Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz to Pinot Noir later in the week.

It feels like Christmas has come early with all of these barrels arriving. We’re really excited about it. Brenden’s already picked his favourites but, we’ll see how the wines look in them when everything is said and done, next year.

Brenden says he’s seeing some of the biggest crops he’s seen in years in the Great Southern. This week we’ve been assessing the vineyard, we’re thinking about dropping some of the fruit to allow the vines to put more energy and concentration into less fruit. 

Brenden reckons Travis Head is going to make a double tonne in Adelaide. Tim thinks it could be all over in the first session on the 5th day. Phil’s saying 300 runs.

We had the best afternoon with you all at the Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club last Sunday. Thank you to everyone that came and visited us and Nathan (from @thebevcoaustralia) for helping get our Great Southern Wines into everyone’s glasses. 

There’s no where we’d rather be than the @great_southern_wine_region 🥂

At the winery this week, Brenden has been working on getting our ‘25 Chardonnay ready for bottling, currently focussing on protein stabilisation, with a little help from our friend Bentonite. Our Pinot Noir plantings are popping up out of their guards to greet the summer sunshine. Tim spent a day fixing the Gator and chasing snakes around the property. Phil nearly got promoted to chief sheep wrangler, only for Tim to pip him to the finish line, yet again. And the Carnaby’s Cockatoos have been out in the vineyard all week, squawking at the craziness happening below them. 

Christmas certainly is coming. 
14 days to go.

Loud, echoing calls overhead, the birds settled on posts in the vineyard. Ngoolark / Carnaby Cockatoos watched over our Pinot plantings yesterday as they jumped from post to post, the three of them playing before once again taking flight. 

Surrounded by rolling hills and native bushland we invite you to slow down, connect and explore our range of cool-climate Great Southern wines this weekend at our Cellar Door.
