in the vineyard : After experimenting in the vineyards 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 chosen 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 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.
