Our selected sultanas are being grown by a NASSA Certified Organic farmer beside the great Murray River. The farm has never been sprayed a drop of herbicide or pesticide. They rely on their own made vermiculture (worm juice) to feed the plants. As all organic farmers will tell you, if you just leave it alone, nature will take care of the rest.

The story of our organic sultanas start when the first buds appear during September and left itself-pollinate throughout the month. The first cluster start early October and the fruit usually begins in November. It then left to matured throughout summer with first veraison (an indication that the grapes are ripening and developing sugars ) start from mid January. The fruit then continue to mature throughout the next few months and reach it ripeness mid February. The farm then make the most of it hot sunshine by allowing the grape to dry itself naturally on the vine for a period of about a month. As the grape dries up, all the sweetness within the fruit is condense to a third of its original ripeness size.

Before being pick, the pickers will go around the farm to test taste it and select the best batch to be picked. The sultana cluster is then being handpicked fresh from the vines and carefully placed within cushion box. This way, the cluster won’t be damaged. As our commitment to have stock ready throughout the year, we have placed the sultana within the air conditioned storage. This way, the sultanas will maintain its exceptional flavour and sweetness.
