This wine was grown by Glenn Monaghan at 395m on Granite and Quartz loam in the Eden Valley. The vineyard (stonegarden) was planted between 1847-1880 with the white block planted to over 25 varieties originally for fortified use. These include six different Muscats, Riesling, Crouchen, Viognier, Verdelho, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Grenache, Mataro, Sultana, Chenin Blanc, Pedro Ximinez, Palomino and others. The grapes were hand harvested, in a single pick, de-stemmed and kept on skins for 18 days. Pressed off skins and aged in old French oak hogs heads for 12 months on light solids. 35ppm sulphur added in the lead up to bottling.

A.R.C or A Random Collection was founded in 2017 by James &
Jessica Audas after making the leap from their lives in Sydney and
ending up on an old off grid permaculture farm in West Gippsland
Victoria. All wines are farmed by them with over 4ha of vineyard
sites in Baw Baw Shire, Gippsland. The rich red volcanic soils of the
region produce wines of elegance, poise and character. All wines
are wild fermented in a mixture of Amphora, large format wooden
barrels and tanks and remain addition free, unfiltered and unfined
with only small sulphur additions when needed.
