Artefact was born with a vision to leave preconceptions behind and experiment with a variety of methods both in the vineyard and the winery.

50% Bacchus, clone GF1 from a small plot lying west of block HH. The grapes were harvested on the 4th October 2022 and crushed & destemmed into 4x 300l Tuscan Amphorae. 21 days skin maceration, indigenous fermentation, followed by a further 11 months lees contact. The wine was then racked into a stainless steel tank for a further 4 months before bottling under gravity. No fining or filtration.

Artefact is a wine full of intrigue; we interpret the events that shaped the world and showcase them on the label. We then let the wine in the bottle do the rest of the talking.
