in the vineyard : It’s been a challenging season for the wine industry with dry and warm conditions overall, yet the Brampton Rosé achieved the perfect colour with grapes from Franschhoek, Paarl and Stellenbosch all hand-harvested, thus minimising any potential colour extraction.

about the harvest: A healthy harvest was spread over a couple of weeks, from mid February to the latter part of March.

in the cellar : Most of the juice was drained directly after crushing, with grapes from some vineyards receiving up to two hours of skin contact. Wines were fermented cold at around 14° C, ensuring they retain a delicate and fresh bouquet.
