🍂 Autumn in Wrattonbully and across the Limestone Coast is that beautiful in-between moment.

Harvest's buzz has faded and for now the work between the rows is done, so the vines can finally exhale into silence.

It's vineyards in their most reflective state: a season that doesn't arrive with a flourish, but simply settles in.

The vines feel calmer: no longer about growth, more about letting go.

A brisk 4°C in Wrattonbully this morning 🥶🧣🧤

After last week’s perfect ripening conditions, it's go time; picking Terre à Terre and DAOSA Cabernet Franc from their Crayères Vineyard.

And the word on the vine? This Cab Franc is shaping up to be their standout fruit of the entire '26 vintage. 🍇
