in the vineyard : Spectacular panoramic views of Stellenbosch and Cape Town, cool hillside vineyards planted to classic varieties, and a modern family-run winery have combined to produce distinctive wines displaying the ripe concentrated fruity accessibility of the New World, with the complex elegance of classic wine styles.

Harvested from selected west-facing vineyards overlooking Cape Town and Table Mountain. Vertical hedge trellising and low yields ensure a complex concentration of flavours.

about the harvest: Harvested between 22nd February and 29th March 2003.

in the cellar : Fermentation between 26-28ÂºC and gentle pressing emphasised the intensity of the fruit flavours. Fermentation was completed in French and American oak barrels where the wine was matured for a total of14 months.
