Bright, ethereal with graceful complexity. Fresh bursts of grapefruit and citrus lead, with zesty rind shavings.

Varietal herbaceousness and hay merge with lemon, honeysuckle, and chamomile blossom, as saltbush salinity rises.

The palate offers subtle spice and ginger nuances, tempered by toasty hazelnut and almond, rounded with soft, waxy honeycomb. Sea spray minerality coils around zippy acidity, driving to a sleek, finessed finish with depth and maritime character.

This vintage spent 10 months beneath the waves—longer than the inaugural immersion.

The vats entered the ocean in November 2024 and were retrieved in August 2025.

Water temperatures peaked at 22°C in March, then dropped to a chilly 16°C by August. The summer of 2025 experienced more swell energy than previous years—a very ‘high ocean-energy year’ is how much of 2025 was characterised.

The surf pumped consistently, keeping yeast in constant suspension with vigorous mixing. This relentless ocean energy translates directly into the distinctive flavours emerging from this vintage, creating wines that capture the raw power of an exceptionally dynamic year beneath the Southern Ocean.
