Specifications
In the cellar
Creating Rosé requires precision to achieve both delicacy and vibrancy. The grapes undergo a gentle pressing to ensure a pale hue while preserving bright fruit expression. After a short period of settling, the juice is transferred to seasoned 225-litre barrels where fermentation unfolds. The wine remains in barrel for six months, with careful bâtonnage adding subtle richness and texture, all while maintaining its lively freshness.
In the vineyard
Our Rosé is crafted from Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, two cultivars that flourish on the slopes of the Simonsberg. Here, the vines enjoy generous sunlight tempered by cool maritime breezes from Table Bay, allowing for slow, even ripening. To capture delicate fruit expression and a light, elegant colour, bunches are hand-harvested at first light while still cool, ensuring pristine quality on arrival at the cellar.
Ageing
6 months in old French oak barrels
Cultivar
Cabernet Franc 68%, Cabernet Sauvignon 32%
