The grapes received partial skin contact and were gently pressed to retain freshness. Fermentation with selected yeasts lasted for three weeks at 15˚C. A barrel-fermented Semillon component contributed body and dimension to the blend. The wine was rested on the lees for five months after fermentation, adding to the depth of flavour.

It is rich in tropical fruit flavours, complemented by notes of blackcurrant, gooseberry, and nettle. Beautifully balanced and complex, it finishes long with pure, concentrated fruit and a refreshing, crisp acidity.

Winery

The grapes were hand-picked in the cool of the early hours from the premium wine regions of Durbanville, Stellenbosch and Darling, each with unique flavours combined in this blend, offering complexity. The vines have an average age of 14 years and are trellised on a five-wire Perold system, a form of a vertical trellis that helps protect the vines from wind damage. The climate is Mediterranean, with warm, dry summers mitigated by the ocean's cooling sea breezes, resulting in a slower ripening process encouraging natural balancing acidity to balance the concentrated fruit flavours. The terroir comprises Tukulu soils derived from granite and has good physical and water-retention properties. The vineyards are cultivated sustainably and are certified by IPW. The vines are hand-harvested, and the grapes are manually sorted to ensure the highest quality fruit is vinified.
