  • This is an intensely fragrant Pinot Noir. Earthy mushrooms complement red berries and a whiff of wood spice. It is simple and smooth, with a long, memorable finish.

20% of the fruit was vinified as a whole bunch. Spontaneous fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. The wine was matured for 10 months in 10% new French oak and the remainder of the second and third-fill barrels.

The Pinot Noir blocks are planted on flat vineyards, which lend warmer conditions, which is ideal for Pinot Noir. The vines are planted in north-south and east-west row directions at an altitude of between 205 and 245 metres. The influence of the Atlantic Ocean's Benguela current brings cooling south-easterly breezes to the area, as do clouds hemmed in by the surrounding mountains, trapping cool air and moisture in the narrow Hemel-en-Aarde. The soils consist of clay loam derived from decomposed 450-million-year-old Bokkeveld shale. The 7-wire Perold trellis system is used to train the vines as it is the most suited to the terroir. The farming methods aim to work hand-in-hand with nature to ensure healthy soils. Organic fertilisers are used, and cover crops are planted for weed control, putting back minerals and for better water retention in soil, as there is less influence from the sun. Mechanical weed control is used instead of herbicides, and the grapes are manually harvested during the cool of the morning.
