Winemaking techniques vary and depend on the style of wine being made. In the Yarra Valley the grapes are harvested from February to March.


Winemakers aim to achieve a balance of fruit, structure, texture and flavour. High quality fruit is essential to produce high quality wine. Generally white varieties are harvested before red varieties. Traditional hand picking is used for special parcels of fruit but the majority is machine picked to allow the fruit to be harvested in the cool of the night.
