The Dead Arm
- Shiraz from McLaren Vale
Dead Arm is a vine disease caused by the fungus Eutypa Lata that randomly affects vineyards all over the world. Often affected vines are severely pruned or replanted. One half, or an ‘arm’ of the vine slowly becomes reduced to dead wood
That side may be lifeless and brittle, but the grapes on the other side, while low-yielding, display amazing intensity

Scarce Earth (originally known as ‘Rare Earth’) is a project that aims to highlight the impact of the site on the flavor of McLaren Vale wines. It utilizes a resource known as the McLaren Vale Geology Map, which divides the region up into 19 ‘districts’, to help ascertain whether similar geologies can indeed make for similar (or perhaps very different) wines
