AWARDS

Veritas 2007 - Bronze

ageing : Although it can be drunk now the wine needs time to develop to its full potential.

in the vineyard : The grapes for this single-vineyard wine were sourced from trellised vines grown in deep, red soils on the floor of the valley of the Klein Roosboom farm. The vineyard, established in 1991, produces no more than 6 tons per hectare.

about the harvest: The grapes were harvested fully ripe by hand at 25Â° Balling in March, when showing concentrated flavours of mulberry and mint.
