The 2016 growing season in the Adelaide Hills started early and was over in a flash. A warm spring resulted in early flowering and great flavour development, with stronger than average yields hand-thinned to maximise fruit flavour and concentration. Three Piccadilly sites made the cut for this blend: the Ashton Hills vineyard; Grigg’s Cemetery Block at Uraidla - a mainstay of this wine over the years; and the Blefari Bickles Rd Vineyard, about 1km south west of Ashton Hills. This latest vintage is matured in seasoned French oak and there are five different clones contributing to the blend. Drink now or cellar for five years.
