about the harvest: The grapes were handpicked in the first week of March 2023,

After a selected yeast strain was added and with the commencing of fermentation, regular pump over and punch downs were applied to the fermenting grapes. The preservatives used for this wine, during the production and cellaring, originates from a selection of various tannins with very high natural antioxidative proprieties that protects the wine from potential oxidation. These tannins are
derived from rooibos and honeybush plants which are endemic and unique to the Cape Floral Kingdom.
