More Information

In the cellar

Fermented separately, berries was crushed and coldsoaked for 24hrs at 12°C, then inoculated with selected yeast that would complement each varietal. The must was fermented in 5 ton open Stainless steel tanks with aerative hand punch downs every 4 hrs to extract all colour and flavour to express the fruit purity and terroir. Fermentation for 7 days at temperatures between 24-29°C after which extended skin maceration followed. The wine was matured for 18mths in a combination of 300L French oak barrels, of which 45% was new.

In the vineyard

These low-yielding vines are drip-irrigated to ensure optimal ripening and trained on the 5-wire-Perold-trellis system. It’s planted on soils consisting of weathered granite on clay. Vines are planted on north facing slopes. The nearby Atlantic Ocean (False Bay) also has a cooling affect on the vineyards during the ripening season.

Ageing

This wine can be enjoyed now, but will age wonderfully for a further 10 years from vintage, if stored in the correct conditions.

Cultivar

48% Pinotage; 35% Cabernet Sauvignon; 17% Shiraz

Food Pairing

Serve the wine @ 12-15 degrees Celsius. Pair this wine with slow cooked lamb Shanks with redcurrant & rosemary jus, or with an extra matured, char-grilled Ribeye steak.
