AWARDS
2024 Concours Mondial de Bruxelles - Gold

Sip on waves of flavour with this award-winning Chenin Blanc. Matured in French Oak barrels for 10 months, this sophisticated wine has a softened palate, resulting in a multi-dimensional wine set to impress. Enjoy with something on the spicier side.

in the vineyard : Sourced from the Tygerberg Hills and Stellenbosch, both these vineyards are close to the Atlantic Ocean, benefitting from the cool winds cooling down the areas. Vines are a mixture of dryland and drip irrigation supplemented vineyards.

about the harvest: The grapes were hand-harvested early in the morning.

in the cellar : Grapes were hand-harvested early in the morning and pre-cooled prior to destemming and crushing. Skin contact was limited to four hours and the free-run juice drained off to settle overnight before inoculation. Fermentation took place in 300L and 400L barrels. The wine matured for 7 months in 2nd, 3rd and 4th fill French oak barrels.
