Colour: Brilliantly clear with a Light yellow straw colour and green hues.

in the vineyard : The grapes were selected from a wide range of vineyards, predominantly from the Robertson, Stellenbosch and Malmesbury areas. Trellised on five-wire hedge systems, the vines are between eight and 18 years of age and yielded an average of 7 to 11 tons per hectare. Pest and disease control was implemented according to South African IPW standards.

about the harvest: The grapes were harvested at 22.5º to 23.5º Balling from mid February until early March.

in the cellar : No skin contact was allowed. The juice is clarified and fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks with French and American oak staves added to a portion of the tanks. After fermentation the wine was matured in the same tanks for a period of four to five months and was stirred every second week. Then the wine was blended, fined and filtered before being bottled.
