THE DIANA MADELINE HARVEST
The last week has seen the team out enjoying the warm weather and enthusiastically harvesting the Cabernet Sauvignon that will become our Diana Madeline 2014.
Everyone was in great spirits and we enjoyed very good days in the field and the sheds. It is always that way when the Diana Madeline cabernet sauvignon fruit comes into the winery – everyone’s mood lifts being a part of that wonderful fruit!
We also found ourselves ready to harvest our Sauvignon Blanc, which was done on Saturday March 1st, on a Moon opposite Saturn Flower day on the biodynamic calendar, which is ideal for this beautiful fruit. For us it was a glorious and busy long weekend here in Western Australia, so the whole winery had a wonderful energy!
Please enjoy the short video we have put together to share with you, of the team at work and the beautiful grapes going through the first step in the extraordinary process to becoming our flagship wine.
