The Proprietors blend is once again impressive and serious in 2016.
Medium to full-bodied, it is strewn with black fruits, exotic spice and chards of dark chocolate. Sweet spicy oak melts into a dense, powerfully-fruited and structured core. The majority Cabernet Sauvignon gives a cassis purity and salty edge, while the Shiraz component adds a meaty, savoury and spicy edge.
The blend is rounded off by the remaining Bordeaux cultivars in a complexity explosion from start to finish. It is exquisitely textured and finely tuned, the 2016 will open up over the next 5 years and age for a decade or more.

All my Single Vineyard Wines are made with minimal interference throughout the vinification. During fermentation natural yeast are used with no enzymes. Maturation takes place in neutral vessels to bring through the unique vineyard characteristics, that's specific to the site. The handcrafted approach by human nature helps to add to the final balance of this unique product".
My philosophy is to create great single vineyard wines from unique soil, climate and location. It's the soil with all the microbes, cycle of elements and the help of living organisms that create the heartbeat for my vines. The location towards the sun wind and holistic climatical conditions reflects the uniqueness of each vineyard
