in the vineyard : Viticulturist: Eben Archer
The grapes were sourced mainly from trellised vineyards on the cool Stellenbosch slopes, either south-facing or at higher altitudes where maritime breezes helped to reduce temperatures during the final stages of ripening.

The vines grow in soils originating mainly from decomposed granite, although some Table Mountain sandstone has been discovered at the vineyards.

about the harvest: The grapes were harvested by hand at between 22° and 23.5° Balling.
