in the vineyard : After experimenting in the vineyard for a couple of years we are now
confident that we know the viticultural recipe to create a light range of
varietal wines with exceptional quality at a very modest alcohol level.
The Pinotage vineyard selected for this range is a 7ha vineyard planted
in Eilandia on Karoo soils. Specific canopy and irrigation management
help us to delay sugar ripening, while flavour development is not
hampered. We manage the vineyard to have a smaller open canopy
which is positive for colour and flavour development, but at the same
time ensure that the acid levels are not too high.
