Sourced from the north-facing Block 3 parcel within The Elms Vineyard, this site is known for producing some of Felton Road’s most powerful and ageworthy wines. Schist-based soils with loess and gravel overlays contribute natural concentration, mineral drive and firm structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"638\" data-end=\"1039\"\u003eThe 2024 vintage shows a composed yet assertive profile, with dark berry and black cherry fruit framed by savoury and earthy nuance. Biodynamic farming, indigenous fermentation and gentle extraction preserve clarity and balance, while carefully integrated oak adds subtle spice without obscuring site expression. Fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity shape a tightly wound core built for longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1041\" data-end=\"1303\"\u003eIn Magnum, the wine gains additional freshness and slow, graceful evolution, reinforcing its suitability for extended cellaring.
