in the vineyard : Nederburg’s core range of varietal and blended wines is an expression of its proud legacy of winemaking excellence, dating back to 1791. These classically styled, food friendly wines with abundant fruit flavours, elegance and finesse, treasure the integrity of the grapes in every step of the wine-growing and winemaking journey. Every drop demonstrates an unwavering commitment to world-class vineyard and cellar skills.

The Grenache and Carignan grapes, hand-picked early in the morning, were sourced from vineyards situated at the Nederburg farm in Paarl. Planted in 2007, the vines are trellised on vertical systems, with sufficient sunlight penetrating into canopies. Both vineyards received supplementary irrigation during the growing season. A portion of the Grenache grapes comes from a vineyard in the Swartland area.

about the harvest: The grapes were harvested early in the morning by hand at 20° to 22º Balling during February.

in the cellar :

Components were separately vinified. Minimal skin contact was allowed. Only free run juice was clarified. Fermentation took place in stainless-steel tanks at 15° to 16°C. After blending, the wine was stabilised and clarified prior to bottling.
