about the harvest: Grapes originate from the Paardeberg and Swartland areas and were picked at optimum ripeness, 24,5 degrees Balling. Standard fermentation procedures were followed, accompanied by pump-overs and punch-downs at between 26 and 28 °C, to ensure optimum colour and flavour extraction.

in the cellar : 30% of this wine was matured in second- and third-fill French oak barrels for 12 months, and the rest on French oak staves for the same period.
