WINEMAKING The “Old Chardonnay” Mendoza clone cuttings were collected from the Agricultural Department ‘Source Block’ in the Swan Valley and planted in 1976. After establishing its ultimate suitability to the region and increased demand blocks 3 & 4 were planted in the early 80’s from the original vines on the Estate as well as a small block of ‘Clones 3 & 5’ collected from the Leeuwin Estate vineyard. Originally all VSP trellised and spur pruned, the vineyard was converted to cane pruned, with +70% lyre trellis in the mid 90’s with immediate and brilliant results.Good spring rainfall was followed by a dry January and February (6.5mm total rainfall) which was ideal for premium grape development. Flavour intensity was further benefited by the fact that cropping levels were reduced by around 30% across the region due to storms in early spring.
