in the vineyard : Worcester lies in the heart of the Breederiver Valley. The valley has a unique terroir, with warm days and cool nights producing grapes which are optimally ripe with intense fruit flavours with some soft tannins. The harvest was a challenge for both viticulturists and winemakers as it was one of the driest growing seasons. Winemakers were faced with lower sugar and acid levels which called for innovative winemaking techniques to produce high quality wine.

about the harvest: Harvested in March

in the cellar : Grapes were cold soaked for two days after which traditional skin fermentation commenced. After completion of alcoholic fermentation the wine underwent malolactic fermentation.
