		<title>Sauvignon Blanc</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Vintage: 2010
Fine fusion of nettles and gooseberries. Tropical. Sauvignon spice is supported by a mouth-watering creaminess, thanks to extended (15 months) lees contact. Lively, crisp and mineral. Made for food. Will age exceptionally well.]]></description>

		<title>12°C</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Vintage: 2010
A white blend, with a strong lemon blossom and ripe citrus fragrances on the nose. Lightly-wooded Semillon, Chardonnay, and Chenin Blanc fill up the midpalate, while the Nouvelle introduces minerality and earthy, straw flavours.]]></description>

		<title>17°C</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Vintage: 2008
There’s a soft, mellow sun-dried tomato flavor to this red blend. The Merlot adds plumpness to the nose, while the Cabernet brings forth wild berry flavors'. A full mid-palate is present, with round, soft tannins and good aging potential. Malbec and Shiraz introduce spiciness.]]></description>

		<title>Biodynamic Thinking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Originating from the anthroposophy of Rudolf Steiner, biodynamics takes a holistic approach to viticulture. It’s regarded by some as the first modern ecological, yet sustainable farming system, and has much in common with other organic philosophies.

		<title>WWF Biodiversity and Wine Initiative</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wedderwill is a signatory to the Word Wildlife Fund (WWF) Biodiversity and Wine Initiative, and is one of just 18 of local estates to be declared ‘Champions in Conservation’.

In the narrowest definition, ‘biodiversity’ refers to the variation of life forms within any given ecosystem. But, as human activity has increasingly impacted on natural spaces, the term has become more meaningfully understood as a measure of the health of biological systems. And there’s little doubt that agriculture puts a strain on these systems. The best solution then, is to farm sensitively.

		<title>Carbon neutrality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The international Carbon Footprint Protocol is a complicated business – but a vital one. It calculates the annual carbon emissions of a company, graded against three different levels. ‘Scope three’ demands the highest standards, and is the one used by Wedderwill. Everything is audited, including: Used fossil fuels, Used electricity, Used fertilizers, Air miles travelled, Car hire usage, Delivery to FOB, shops, restaurants and other clients. The only exclusion is emissions created by the production of dry goods – such as labels, bottles and corks – produced by third parties.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our season basically starts with pruning strategies in winter, not long after which spring will burst out in all its lush green vigour, a time which makes a farmer’s heart beat higher as the new vintage starts kicking off.
