2017 Vintage Update

It’s nearly crunch, or should we say, “crush” time at Singlefile. The 2017 harvest is just around the corner, with Denmark showing good development and steady ripening in response to the warmer temperatures. Most vineyards are expecting a later harvest this year, perhaps two or more weeks later than last year, which means late March or early April for Chardonnay in the Great Southern. Here’s a quick rundown on how we’re shaping up for Vintage 2017.  Continue »

2016 climate and vintage update

The year 2016 was a challenging year in terms of the length of the wet season, which encroached on the ripening of the vines and meant plenty of proactive management was necessary, particularly in terms of prevention of bird damage. A late storm in January was unwelcome in most of the Great Southern. Fortunately the yield was up on 2015 and most vineyards could work around any bird damage or threat from botrytis and, like many other vineyards, Singlefile could breathe a sigh of relief once we had completed the harvest, around the normal date towards the end of March.  Continue »

2016 at Singlefile Wines

The year 2016 may go down as the year Trump came to power as the leader of the free world. Or maybe the year Rio de Janeiro hosted the Olympic Games. The affairs of Singlefile Wines may not compare on this global level but it certainly was a big year for the entire team.  Continue »
