The Manor House ultra-premium collection comprises single varietal wines made from Nederburg's best-of-best fruit, inspired by the beautifully proportioned Cape Dutch manor house built in 1800 by Nederburg's founder, Philippus Wolvaart.

in the vineyard : The grapes were sourced from various selected vineyards from sites across the Western Cape. The vineyards where managed with the inputs of the viticulturist to ensure the best practices were applied. Each block was picked at optimum ripeness and vinified separately to add complexity

about the harvest: The grapes were harvested by hand and machine at 22º to 23,5º Balling, from mid-February until the end of March.

in the cellar : The fruit was crushed and then cool-fermented on the skins in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 25º to 28ºC for two weeks. The wine was aged in new-, second- and third-fill oak barrels from France, Eastern Europe and America for 27 months before final assemblage
