The name Five Moons reflects the passing of five lunar cycles — the slow transformation of grapes from flowering through ripening to harvest. Over nearly five months, the vineyard is watched with precision and patience as the fruit develops.

At the centre is viticulturist and managing owner Andy Ferreira. With hands-on involvement across the vineyards and access to first-hand knowledge of each growing season, this ongoing connection provides rare insight into fruit development, seasonal variation, and harvest timing — enabling the selection of exceptional parcels at their peak.

Night Harvest is not just a name — it is a big reason why these wines reflect the area they come from. Grapes are picked in the cool of night, when low temperatures preserve freshness, purity, and aromatics.

But night harvesting is no quiet affair. For ten intense weeks each vintage, harvesters, machines, and winery crews work through the darkness at full pace. It is a logistical endeavour of immense scale, demanding endurance, precision, and commitment from everyone involved.

“Harvesting has always been an important part of my life — it is what enabled me to build my business. Ten weeks of intensity that is hard to match. The tiredness is hard to comprehend. This brand is dedicated to my harvesting team.”
