Originally we planted four of the traditional red Bordeaux varieties.
Both Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc proved to be potentially herbaceous in cooler years and have since been replaced by the very successful Syrah.
 
Merlot and Malbec however are more consistent and as a pair very complementary. When ever possible we produce a limited quantity of a separate Reserve wine from each variety.The balance, and in some years the entire crop is used to create a Merlot/Malbec blend.
