The grapes were sourced from top-performing vineyards situated in the groenekloof,
coastal, wellington and stellenbosch wine-growing areas. The vines are grown in
granite and shale soils, resulting in grapes with a higher natural acidity and resulting
freshness. Open vineyard canopies bring about greater sunlight penetration of the grape
bunches, contributing to a well-balanced acidity, in turn contributing to better tannin
structure and fruit expression as well as deeper colour intensity. Winemaking:
The grapes were harvested at 24º balling during february and march. On arrival at the
cellar, the fruit was gently crushed and fermented on the skins in temperaturecontrolled stainless-steel tanks at 25º to 28º c for 14 days. Upon completion of
malolactic fermentation, the wine was matured in contact with mostly french and some
american oak for a period of 15 months.
