Luc Cowley - First and foremost, I believe that the most important element of wine is balance whether this be balance between fruit and oak, sweetness and acidity or weight and tannins. In today's modern winemaking environment quality itself is no longer an issue with the techniques and equipment made available to the winemaker. Quality should be something we take for granted and for a wine to stand out, it needs to be more than just varietal. My aim as a winemaker is to make exciting wines of individuality; wines with personality. I strive for the wines I make to be complex yet varietal and to reflect the terrior without being bound by it.
