Winemaking Notes
The three parcels were handpicked separately, in February from the RiverBank Estate Vineyard in the Swan Valley. Hand plunged in small one tonne open fermenters before maturation in seasoned oak hogsheads for twelve months. This is a minimal intervention wine and natural sedimentation will occur!
Only 80 dozen of this wine, affectionally dubbed “Franc Sinatra” were made.
