In the cellar
The grapes underwent a cold soak prior to inoculation. The wine fermented for about four days, with aerated pump-overs three times daily. After completing both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in tank, the wine was matured in French-coopered American oak barrels
In the vineyard
Our extensive Pinotage vineyards, rooted in diverse soil compositions, are predominantly cultivated as bush vines. Planted between 1959 and 1996, most blocks benefit from drip irrigation

Food Pairing
