葡萄栽培 Viticulture:
完全來自於 1969 年的原始 Lunar Block Shiraz 種植園。 該街區獨特的小氣候在緩坡、西北朝向的山坡上混合了鐵石、石灰石和橙紅色粘土。 傍晚的溝壑微風在夏季提供涼爽的效果,使獨特的水果風味充分發展而不會過度成熟。 低種植和最少的灌溉創造了完美的葡萄藤平衡,確保了出色的顏色、結構和集中的品種特徵。
Sourced entirely from the original 1969 Lunar Block Shiraz plantings. The block’s unique microclimate boasts a mix of ironstone, limestone and orange-red clay soils on a gently sloping, north-west facing hillside. Evening gully breezes provide a cooling effect during summer, allowing the distinctive fruit flavours to fully develop without over ripening. Low cropping and minimal irrigation create perfect vine balance, ensuring excellent colour, structure, and concentrated varietal character.
