Tasting Notes
2008 Veritas Awards - Silver Medal
2008 Michelangelo Awards - Silver Medal
Clear Ruby colour. Pleasant sweet and sour cherries with good wood integration. Soft and velvety on the finish.
In The Vineyard
Grapes picked from vines located in the Western Cape.
About The Harvest
All grapes were hand picked and sorted twice before a pure yeast culture called BM 45 was inoculated.
In The Cellar
The juice was pumped over the skins 3-5 times per day for 5 days. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was drained of the primary lees and transferred to a resting tank. Malolactic fermentation and a brief settling period preceded the wine to a combination of 225 litre of French and Hungarian oak types.
