Regenerative viticulture
Our innovative and regenerative approach to grape growing focuses on improving the quality of the soil and health of the vines.
We integrate practices such as cover cropping, compost application, enhanced plant nutrition, biological disease suppression and high density rotational sheep grazing to enhance soil biological activity, increase soil carbon, and reduce our reliance on external inputs.
Our regenerative practices
Regenerative mindset
A regenerative mindset means we are always looking to innovate, to apply the latest science, and to adapt our practices to variation in seasons and variability across vineyards.
Compost application
We keep the ground covered by applying compost and mulch to feed the soil and the vines, minimise disturbance, and increase fungal activity.
Cover cropping
Cover crops increase plant diversity in the vineyard, pumping more carbon into the soil, fixing nitrogen and providing food for beneficial insects.
Integrating sheep
Rotational grazing of livestock in the vineyard in winter reduces need for tractor passes and helps to increase soil carbon.
Targeted foliar nutrition
We apply a comprehensive foliar fertilisation program focused on trace elements to enhance grapevine photosynthesis natural plant defences against disease.
Lightweight bottles
All our wines use lightweight bottles containing a high percentage recycled glass to reduce emissions and waste.
