Taking inspiration from the spectacular Northern Cape stars cape, this special range of wines offer stellar balance and lingering flavour. A premium range representing the finest selection of vineyard sites and cellar batches, lavished with care and attention to give a unique taste of the Northern Cape terroir

in the vineyard : Having its origin in Hungary, the variety Irsai Oliver has found a second home in the Northern Cape. Grown in deep alluvial soils between the Orange River and Kalahari dunes, its early ripening tendency, together with expert vineyard management, allow the grapes to escape the worst of the summer heat. The vines were planted in 2010 and are only now beginning to show what they are capable of producing.

about the harvest: The grapes for this special Demi-Sec were hand harvested in the early morning and transported to the cellar where they are immediately lightly pressed.

Free run juice and fermentation at 12°C allow for the development of the undeniably moreish aromas and flavours.
