| Winery | The vineyards are located on the fertile slopes of the Olifantsberg Mountain Range, where they endure large diurnal temperature differences and strong winds at altitudes from 250 to 450 metres above sea level. During the winter, the mountain peaks are snow-covered, keeping the vines dormant for longer. Cold winters and the summer winds ensure the grapes' slow ripening, which helps maintain healthy vines and contributes freshness and elegance to the wines. The soils in the vineyard comprise shale and slate, which lend structure to the resulting wine. The vineyards are farmed sustainably, helping to maintain the biodiversity within the vineyards and soils. |
