Beautifully fresh and pure, with notes of pear and
apples on the nose. It is pleasantly silky and
textured on the palate, with a great acid backbone
and minerality on the finish.

Vineyard

Grapes are sourced from a single vineyard on the Paardeberg Mountain. The vineyard
was planted in 1983 and is planted with dry farmed bush vines. Vines are 32 years old,
mostly south facing with an altitude of 250 metres above sea level. Soils are
decomposed granite which encourage the vine to develop deep and strong roots.

Vinticulture

Farmed organically with minimal intervention. All grapes were handpicked in the
early morning during cooler weather, placed into lug boxes (smaller quantities
mean reduced compaction and damage to the fruit) and then moved to cellar.

Winemaking

80% of the wine was cool fermented in stainless steel, the remaining 20% was kept
whole bunch, soaked on skins for 4 weeks before fermentation in older 300-litre
barrels. Ageing takes place over 9 months in old oak, after which the wine is
blended and bottled without fining or filtering and with very minimal SO2
additions.
