about the harvest: Harvesting took place from the 7th to the 8th of February of 2022.

in the cellar : The grapes were picked at around 21-22˚ Balling and hand sorted before it was destemmed and crushed. Colour extracting took no longer than 2-3 hours before the juice was left to settle for 48 hours at around 13-14˚ Celsius. The clear juice was drawn off the lees and inoculated with a specific commercial yeast strain. Fermentation was controlled at around 14˚ Celsius and took around 10 days to complete.

Skin contact of only 2-3 hours resulted in a beautiful delicate colour and soft fruit flavours. A dry, perfumed and fruity Rosé that is perfect for easy sipping during the warm summer months, the Lanzerac Pinotage Rosé proudly lives up to its name.
