Expert Opinion

What our expert says

Our heart and soul is in every bottle of the Orchid range. This is our flagship line made from premium parcels of estate-grown fruit and each wine is named after a magnificent native orchid found in the area. We believe the range represents the pinnacle of Frankland River winemaking.From a vintage that can only be described as a typical Frankland River Autumn. 2008 produced red fruit packed full of flavour and intensity. The vintage was warm and dry resulting in pristine fruit condition and low yields. Vine age = 11-12 years. Soil composition = sandy gravel over red friable clay. Yield 6.5t/Ha on a morth facing block. Row spacing 3.6m, vine spacing 1.8m = 1543vines/Ha
