SUSTAINABILITY.
The ethos of Dr Edge revolves heavily around reflecting the purity of each site. This is achieved through working with growers that respect the land and understand that ethical agricultural practices are pivotal in this process. All inputs in the vineyards are kept to a minimum with disease pressure quite low in such a cool climate. The wines are made with minimal intervention, minimal sulphur and no fining or filtration.
