Clayvin Vineyard
This gently sun facing vineyard was love at first sight
for Georg Fromm. From the very first moment he realised
the potential of this most beautiful hillside site, which
was planted by a local viticulturist and his wife with
only one passion, to grow fine red grapes.
The soil has 150mm - 200mm topsoil over various clay forms,
ranging from blue clay through to red iron bearing clay.
There are areas with standard clay and parts where the
clay has metamorphosed into crumbly rocks. This complex
soil structure reflects in the wines as a distinctive
mineral character.
Close planting and the enormous effort put into the vineyard
was crucial in order to produce the top quality wines
envisaged by Fromm Winery. more
