Wine Description
A deep purple colour with ripe plums, berry and dark chocolate aromas on the nose. The intensity of the fruit is carried on to the palate where it fills one’s mouth with juicy tannins.
Vineyards
The vineyards are found in a variation in meso-climates, exposed hills, and sheltered valleys, with soils from Granite, Sandstone soils and Alluvial soils. Grapes are picked from a selection of these different wards in the Western Cape.
Winemaking Techniques
The grapes were cold soaked for a day. After traditional skin fermentation, the wine underwent malolactic fermentation.
Vintage Conditions
The 2022 season will be remembered for the initial cool weather conditions that made ripening very slow. Phenolic ripeness occurred later and that lead to longer maturation time in the vineyards, creating exciting wines that are full and complex.
