At the heart of the winery sits the Fermentation Dome, lined with 24 fermentation tanks that can accommodate grapes from individual vineyards across the estate. The projections on the walls look like something out of NORAD, but they in fact make up FILCS (pronounced “felix”), or Fermentation Intelligent Logic Control System. A sophisticated algorithmic fermentation-control and -monitoring system for each tank, FILCS projects a broad range of data (including real-time thermal imaging) onto the ceiling of the dome, giving instant insight into the fermentation process. This is a technological leap well beyond traditional fermentation, which relies less on data than on sheer guesswork — as such, it frees the winemaker to spend more time tasting.
