The maritime influence at the Langhorne Creek vineyard, created by the afternoon sea breezes, allows fruit flavors to evolve without excessive sugar production. The limestone-based soils contribute to wines of power and elegance with great varietal character. This vineyard is ideal for precision control over water use on the vines and is known for producing more structural wines.

Alc/Vol: 14.5%
