Bitches Brew, 2021

A good winegrower is a good observer. Attentive to his vine, he closely observes the natural processes and metamorphoses occurring in his vineyard to gain an ever-deepening understanding of the land as a living organism. As a winemaker I spend much of my time in the vineyard studying the plants’ growth habit. I have come to realise that only when soil is in balance can it be the source and destiny of all life. It is my experience that the microorganisms in the soil forge a symbiotic relationship with plant life that we as winegrowers harness – and in fact support – in vine training. I firmly believe that bringing out the most authentic expression of our unique terroir requires a truly healthy vineyard.
