in the vineyard : The vines for this wine were grown in a combination of Malmesbury Shale and Cape Granite soils along the coastal zone and towards some inland regions. The trellised vines received supplementary irrigation, producing 10 to 14 tonnes per hectare of grapes during harvest. The cooling effect of prevailing winds and sea breezes offset the warm Mediterranean climate.

about the harvest: The grapes were machine-harvested early in the morning while it was still cool and the grape temperatures were low.

in the cellar : Grapes were the gently pressed in the cellar. Only the best juice was fermented in stainless-steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine spent a few months on the lees to encourage complexity before clarification and bottling. Reductive winemaking techniques minimised oxidation to protect flavours.
