in the vineyard : Farmed dry-land, thus not irrigated. Selected from a specific vineyard on our property. The vines are aged 45 years. This block delivers a distinctively different Chenin Blanc than the rest of the farm.

about the harvest: The grapes were handpicked early morning and cooled overnight.

in the cellar : Partially whole bunch and basket press. The juice was left to settle overnight without adding any enzymes. The wine did not undergo full malolactic fermentation to enhance ist freshness.
