The climate and terroir of Barossa for this blend

Barossa is warm and dry, with sunny days and mild nights. For white blends like this, this climate ensures ripe grapes with sufficient aromatic intensity. The soil is varied, often with a mix of sand, clay, and limestone, which helps to retain freshness and mineral tension despite the heat. This makes Barossa ideally suited for blends with Mediterranean grape varieties such as Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne.

The grapes for Three Gardens are carefully selected and harvested at the right moment to guarantee a balance between ripe fruit and fresh acidity. This is crucial in warm regions to keep aromas and energy intact.

Grapes and vinification of the 2023 Three Gardens Viognier Marsanne Roussanne

This blend is composed of Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne. Each grape variety makes its own contribution: Viognier provides aromatic intensity and floral notes, Marsanne brings structure and fullness, and Roussanne adds elegance and fine minerality.

After the harvest, the grapes are vinified separately. Fermentation usually takes place in stainless steel to preserve the fresh, fruity, and aromatic characteristics. Sometimes, a small portion is fermented or aged in used oak barrels to add extra texture and complexity without overpowering the purity. The result is a blend that is fresh, expressive, and balanced.
