The 8 Acres vineyard was planted in 1892 and sits just below the 4 Acres vineyard beside the driveway up to the winery. The vine orientation is north-south, perpendicular to the 4 Acres vines, and the vineyard produces a different style of wine altogether. The fruit is handpicked and sorted in the vineyard before fermentation takes place in our open-top vats with 15% whole bunches. After fermentation, the wine is matured for 14 months in a one-year-old 2700L French oak cask.

The most vivid, almost electric purple hue, with more density of colour compared to 4 Acres. It is a rounder, darker fruited style with a wider shape on the palate. Fleshy and juicy up front, followed by an  underlying core of spice that runs through the palate and with a fresh acidity and savoury tannin, that gives the wine its length.
