Harvest Information

Grapes selected from vineyards in Franschhoek and Breedekloof. All the grapes were picked by hand at optimal ripeness (balling between 23 and 24).

Malolactic fermentation took place in tank, thereafter the wine was transferred to 225l French oak barrels for 12 months. 15% New oak and the rest 2nd; 3rd; 4th; 5th fill barrels.
