For the second year in a row, about three tonnes of ripe fruit was harvested early in the morning at the Merricks Grove Vineyard in Merricks North, and once it arrived at the winery it was immediately pressed. The juice was kept cool to help separate the solids, and while some juice was transferred to one large mature Hungarian oak puncheon (500L) the majority went to a stainless-steel tank for fermentation. Malolactic fermentation was halted in the tank to keep plenty of crunchy freshness, whilst the barrel was allowed to go through malolactic fermentation to create a bit of depth and soft texture. The wine was blended and then bottled at the end of August 2020.
