Naturally low levels of crop resulted from frequent blustery winds over flowering. The season was otherwise excellent and produced beautifully ripened semillon, from which this wine is made. Over the late autumn and winter the berries developed botrytis.

We were thus able to harvest beautifully ripened grapes in optimum condition.
