The weather held steady in spring, resulting in good fruit set and moderate yields. Significant rainfall in early January kept vineyard crews on their toes, but diligent work and drier conditions from mid-January through to harvest ensured a clean crop was delivered to the winery. Altitude keeps the Seven Slopes of Rising site cool, resulting in a finer style of Chardonnay with a strong, stony influence from the shallow rocky soils. The Pinot Noir is also fine boned and ethereal.
