Vineyard Site

In the Finniss River environs, sweltering midday heats are balanced by cool afternoon winds. The nearby Southern Ocean sends in cold sea air each night, a decisive factor in the aromatic development of the grapes. The wine growing area of Finniss River extends along the southeast shoulder of the Adelaide Hills, part of the Fleurieu Peninsula. Braeside vineyard is the most elevated vineyard within our Salomon vineyards in Finniss, approximately 150m above sea level. The soil composition consists of a thin pinkish mix of gravel and glacial sand in the topsoil, and calcareous red and orange clay in the subsoil.

Vinification

Harvest mid of April 2018. This single vineyard wine is fermented in open fermenters for 5 weeks then goes into barrels, aged for 18 months in 300-liter hogsheads. Approx. 20% new oak, exclusively French oak, mostly Taransaud.
