Cinsault from a 44 year old dry farmed bush vine vineyard in Darling. The vines are grown in decomposed granite on a south facing slope which gets battered by the prevailing south-east wind off the cold Atlantic.

Grapes are meticulously sorted in both vineyard and winery. 50% whole bunch spontaneous fermentation with gentle extraction and 2 weeks on the skins. Basket pressing is followed by a year in older foudre and amphora before bottling.

Follow the Line always displays aromatic purity; strawberries, cherries, rose petals and violets. The 2025 is an extremely complex wine with the characteristic freshness of granitic soils. One must never underestimate the ‘lightness’ of Cinsault, Follow the Line drinks beautifully young but will age well up to 10 years.
