ORIGIN
The fruit is sourced from the Melozal area, an area noted for its aridness and intense summers. Nestled in the coastal ranges, protected from both the coastal and mountain effects, the areas soils are a deep sandy loam of low fertility. These conditions allow for exceptional ripeness, soft tannins and flavours to develop. The Carignan vines are dry farmed bush-vines of over 80 years old.
