METHODE:
The grapes are hand picked high up against the rocky mountain slopes of the beautiful Tulbagh Valley. Vinification takes place in an old stone cellar where the grapes are whole bunch pressed very gently in a wooden basket press. The wine is cold fermented and afterwards aged on the fine lees for 6 months in a combination of fourth and fifth fill French oak barrels. Weekly batonage is performed to obtain richness and a creamy mouthfeel.
TASTING NOTES:
This wine is a true expression of the versatility of the iconic Pinotage grape and shows aromas of white pear and peaches with a clean, linear finish.
