From the Balluri MGA at 240 meters elevation, this 1.6-hectare site features calcareous-sandy soils with high sand content from 40-50 year old vines. Uniquely fermented in stainless steel rather than wood, with 25-30 days of maceration and hand pump-overs. The wine ages 18 months in 25-hectoliter Slavonian oak, deliberately shorter to preserve the cru's characteristic suppleness.
