in the vineyard : These quality grapes were grown on the cool Piekenierskloof Mountains.

about the harvest: In the southern hemisphere summer lasts from December until the end of February. The grapes are harvested from mid-January until mid-April. Chenin Blanc being an early ripener, these grapes were harvested from late January to early February in the very early mornings and late hours of the day, allowing the grapes to retain their fruitiness and flavours.

in the cellar : Cool crushed grapes fermented under controlled conditions at 13°C.
