ageing : This wine should reach its best potential from September 2004 onwards. Due to the fresh acidity and loads of fruit, this wine could easily mature until 2006.

One of the Sauvignon Blanc blocks are 25 years old and planted on a slight North-West slope at an altitude of 180-160 m. The younger blocks are 10 years old and planted on terraced South-Western slopes 180-240 m above sea-level.
