Life from Stone derives its name from the incredibly rocky soils in which it is grown. Every year the vineyard battles against nature to produce highly concentrated, powerful wines with a flinty, mineral character true to the quartz rock in which it is grown. Monumental human effort was required to plant the vines – implements destroyed, and, in the case of the older vineyards, dynamite deployed.
A true expression of the site’s terroir, this wine will drink well now, or can be enjoyed in the next 2-3 years
