Origin

Wine of Origin South Africa.

In the vineyard

The grapes were hand-harvested from two high-altitude vineyard blocks that individually produce 4 - 8 tonnes per hectare. The vines grow on well-drained granitic soils. The harvest is done by hand in mid-season at perfect ripeness.

In the cellar

The selection of bunches takes place in the cellar before pressing and fermentation. Fermentation takes place before delicate soft pressing in a vertical press.
After malolactic fermentation, the wine matures in French oak barrels for a period of 14 months.
