in the vineyard : 
 
The Merlot component stems from late ripening, older vineyards whilst the Cabernet Sauvignon is from an earlier ripening, youthful block - both in the Stellenbosch region.
in the cellar : Picked simultaneously the Merlot and Cabernet grapes are crushed, placed into a singular tank and co-fermented for 14-21 days in an automated pumpover system in stainless steel tank to avoid accidental human contact. This occurs two times daily for 20 minutes. Post alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, the wine is flash pasteurised to 90°C, influenced by French oak for 12 months thereafter. Pasteurised and prepared under supervision of the Beth Din South Africa and the Orthodox Union of the United States, this wine is Mevushal and Kosher
