Lanzerac The DOK 2022

This flavour packed wine showcases notes of mulberry, fruit pastilles and liquorice on the nose that follows through to a juicy palate. The emphasis is on fruit, but soft, polished tannins. The acidity adds to the complexity and balance of this wine.

The DOK 2022 can be enjoyed with dishes such as wild mushroom risotto, Norwegian meatballs with a spicy cream sauce or Malbec-marinated savoury smokedduck with garlic and honey.

in the vineyard : DOK is a Malbec harvested from a single vineyard block situated on Lanzerac in the Jonkershoek Valley. The soil found in this particular vineyard block – decomposed granite – gives this wine its supremacy and force the vines to work extremely hard resulting in a crop consisting of concentrated red berries. The block was planted in 1998 and is a mere 0.38 hectares in size.
about the harvest: Harvest took place on the 28 of March 2022.
in the cellar : The wine was fermented in open bins and punched down twice a day by hand, with natural yeast being used. Only 2nd fill or older French Oak barrels were used to mature this wine for 16 months before bottling.
