Our 2025 Vintage Report

Our 2025 Vintage Report

Posted by Ian McKenzie on

It’s been a whirlwind of a month in the vineyard! With the warm spring and summer setting the stage, the vines have flourished, producing an abundance of high-quality fruit. The boys have been hard at work, from bottling (see them deep in thought, mulling over their hard work) to netting the vines, removing the nets, and of course—the biggest job of all—picking!


Harvest is well underway, and the team had a massive day picking and then pressing the Rosé, a real highlight of the season. As we write this, our Sangiovese has just been picked and is now going through fermentation, and we couldn’t be happier with the fruit—it looked fantastic coming in! The rest of the vineyard is bursting with fruit, and it looks like the Cabernet and Shiraz will be picked close together, making for an intense but rewarding few weeks ahead.

Top Picks of 2025 – A Look Ahead

Every vintage brings a sense of anticipation—what will come of this year’s hard work? With every bottling, there’s a special kind of excitement as we get the first taste of what our next release wines will be like.

Of course, they’ll rest in bottle for a little while longer before they’re ready to shine, but we can’t wait to share them with you. Stay tuned for a special Members Release Tasting later this year, where you’ll get the first pour of what’s to come!
