The Chenin Blanc ripened later than usual, which allowed for extended hang time in the vineyard, leading to higher concentration of flavours in the bunches. Made from block 7, which is split into two smaller blocks, where the row direction is perpendicular to one another. This allows for a complex flavour in the final product. Wine spent 6 months on the lease before bottling.

in the vineyard : The vines are planted in a vertical shoot positioning (VSP) trellis system. Leaves are removed during the ripening stages to prevent
the fruit from rotting. Sun-kissed bunches add complexity to the wine. Vines are planted on a combination of Malmesbury shale and deeper clay soils with good water-holding capacity, which ensures even growth during dry periods
