100% whole bunches undergo a natural yeast ferment in open vats, with minimum intervention. Wine is then aged for 11 months in French hogsheads on lees. They are only handled once, the week before bottling, when they are put in a blending tank and lightly sulfur adjusted. Wines are bottled without fining or filtration.

Grapes are sourced from the Bloody Hill vineyard, which is south of Healesville on the base of Mount Toolebewoong. The vineyard lies on a very steep 2.5Ha plot, with shallow gravel topsoil interspersed with broken sandstone over rock. The altitude is around 200 metres above sea level. Climate is cool in relation to the rest of Australia's viticultural regions, with rainfall in the winter and spring, and relatively cool, dry and humid summers. There is limited maritime influence.
