Harvest Information

Vineyards planted in 1905 and grown in granite soils in the Franschhoek Valley. Extremely low yield, averaging at 3 tonnes/ha.

Winemaking

Grapes were whole-bunch pressed and the natural fermentation took place in Austrian Foudre and Italian concrete. The must was fermented between 14 – 17˚C and the lees was stirred up daily for two months and then once every month for the next 8 months thereafter. Sulphur was added only at bottling. Barrel maturation took place for 10 months.

Winemaker's Note

Initial freshness on the nose that opens up to a complex citrus and zesty lime with underlying floral aromas. A full, rich palate of honey, nougat and citrus is perfectly balanced with caramel sweetness and a lingering finish.

Cellaring

Accessible and can age until 2031.
