Punch vineyard is meticulously and sensitively cared for - using appropriate organic and holistic systems based on both science and years' experience. Vines are hand dressed, pruned and harvested. In the winery they use minimal interventions, harnessing natural yeasts, gravity settlings, slow elevage in barrel, and no fining or filtration. After estate bottling, they allow all of their wines significant time in bottle, to develop closer to their peak before release.
