Abundant rainfall in 2021 ensured good water reserves for the vines. A long, cool winter delayed the start of the season, followed by consistently mild weather in Stellenbosch. Slow, gradual ripening favored excellent aromatic concentration in the grapes, with balanced acidity and a low pH. An excellent vintage, marked by elegance and finesse.

The grapes are hand-picked and gently pressed whole bunches to obtain the cuvée, the purest juice. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at low temperatures with selected yeasts to enhance freshness and aromas. After a second fermentation in the bottle, the wine ages on the lees for 15 months. A generous dosage at disgorgement brings balance to the Demi-Sec profile.
