About Ben Haines

“What drives me every day is the connection with place, and its interpretation through winemaking.” -Ben Haines. Ben’s wines are intensely textural with flavors continuing to develop sip after sip. The fruit is expressive and the structure is present without being constraining. He sources grapes from multiple locations in Australia with the intent of showcasing their quality and unique sense of place.

Production note

The grapes were hand-harvested from Great Western in Victoria. There were two ferments, both with indigenous yeast. The first was 100% whole bunch with 7 days semi-carbonic maceration followed by gentle extraction. Post-fermentation maceration for a further 7 days prior to pressing to barrel. The second was destemmed (whole berry) left undisturbed for the first half of ferment to allow a gentle infusion. Post- fermentation maceration for 4 weeks before pressing to barrel. Both parcels were matured on gross lees for 8 months prior to racking, blending and bottling. Unfined. Unfiltered.
