The wine has been made in the Chablis style using little oak and cool fermentations in stainless steel to retain the fruit. . It is completely different in concept to the Kevin John’s in place and style but made without additions of yeast acidity and anything else. 2025 produced exceptional white wines with opulence, structure and ripe fruit characters. Hand-harvested over two days a Flower Day on February 18th and a Fruit Day on February 23. The wine has been predominately tank fermented with a small portion in French oak for texture. Natural yeast and no additions of acidity.
