Specifications
In the cellar
The grapes were harvest from two different blocks, the one much younger than the other. The two batches were fermented separately. After malolactic fermentation the wine was taken to small French oak barrels for 12 months. 25% of the oak is first fill. Before bottling careful blending was done to produce this very elegant wine.
In the vineyard
All the grapes come from Yonder Hill’s vineyard at the foot of the Helderberg Mountain. Here we have decomposed granite soils, resulting in less vigorous growth of the vines giving smaller berries and thus more intense aromas.
Ageing
French oak barrels for 12 months. 25% of the oak is first fill.
Cultivar
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
About the Wine Estate
With the vineyards situated at the foothills of the majestic Helderberg, the cooling influence of False Bay is ever so felt, ensuring the retention of natural acidity that makes the backbone of this elegant wine.
