Fortunately, after tricky weather at flowering, we didn’t need to contend with frost also for 2020. With such small volumes, the 2020 Command is a story about intense concentration and depth of flavour. From the vineyard, we could see the intensity of fruit we had to work with for our release of Command. Spanning from the North Para River on the western side of our Command vineyard to Cellar Door at the eastern end, we see a gradual increase in clay content which corresponds with a decrease in vigour over the vineyard. For this reason we harvest the Command fruit in a couple of picks, aiming to achieve the perfect balance in each pick. Destemmed fruit was fermented in open cement vats for 7-14 days. Post-pressing, the new Command was transferred to a combination of new French and American oak from coopers we know and trust.
