Terroir
Rooted in deep decomposed granite over clay soils on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain, these vineyards enjoy refreshingly cool breezes from False Bay (Atlantic Ocean) during the hot summer days and cool mountain winds during the evening; optimal conditions for even ripening of the berries.
Viticulture
The vineyards are meticulously cared for by hand and organic and biodynamic practices are employed by not using any pesticides, herbicides or chemical spray. The crop is also reduced to ensure maximum quality.
Vinification
The grapes were whole bunch pressed and only the free run juice was used. The wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks, after which it was matured, hand riddled on the lees for 60 months, before disgorgement.
