Kay Brothers Hillside

"The Hillside vineyard had its beginnings in 1992 when cuttings from the 100 year old gnarled vines of Block 6 were planted on the eastern hillside of the Amery property - further plantings of the Block 6 clone took place in 1993, 1997, 1998 and 1999. This is the 8th vintage release from our Hillside vineyard, with the first being from the 1997 vintage. "kaybrothersamery.com
