AWARDS

Michelangelo International Wine Awards 2020 - Gold

in the vineyard : 

Trellised vines with an average age of between 13 and 19 years. Although the climate is Mediterranean, the cooling effect of ocean breezes brings average temperatures down. The vines received supplementary irrigation and produced 10 to 14 tonnes per hectare.

Terroir / Soil: Mainly Malmesbury shale and Cape granite soils.

about the harvest: The grapes were machine-harvested early in the morning while it was still cool and the grape temperatures were low.

in the cellar : In the cellar, we worked reductively, minimizing oxidation to protect flavours. Grapes were gently pressed and only the best juice was fermented in stainless-steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine spent 4 months on lees to bring complexity, before clarification and bottling.
