Viticulture
 
Northeast aspect on cane pruned vines and grown on the
Wildberry Farms Vineyard in Wilyabrup. Healthy canopy
management allows for dappled light penetration and minimal direct sun on the fruit zone. This dappled light creates a slow and tempered ripening that leads to vibrant and perfumed berry development, perfect for Chardonnay production.
