More Information

In the cellar

The juice of the grapes was barrel-fermented in a selection of 228 litre Burgundy-shaped French oak barrels (39% new, 43% second-fill and 18% third fill Nevers and Burgundian oak barrels). The wine was then matured “sur lie” in the barrel for nine months with occasional rolling of the barrels to accentuate the leesy character. 8% tankfermented Chardonnay was blended with the barrel-wine to ensure well-balanced citrus flavours. Both the tank and barrelfermented Chardonnay underwent malolactic fermentation.

In the vineyard

The distinct ravine in the Stellenbosch Kloof ward allows the opportunity to harness the cooling influences from the False Bay on our south and east facing slopes. This captures the intense flavour compounds found in the grape skins. The grapes were harvested from the 7th of February to the 12th of March 2020 at an average of 21.8°B.

Ageing

This wine was made to enjoy now, however, it can age for a further eight years if stored in the correct conditions.

Cultivar

Chardonnay

Food Pairing

This wine perfectly pairs with meaty fish and shellfish, can also be enjoyed with risottos and cream enhanced sauces.
