Winemakers Comments:
The wine went through spontaneous fermentation to reflect the site and variety of the variety. The wine was matured in 3 different vessels, each bringing it’s own character out in the wine. 1/3 in local amphora that focusses the acidity of the wine resulting in the core component of the wine. Then 1/3 in older 300L barrels for more texture and 1/3 in new French oak for midpalate weight and structure.
Grapes come from Stellenbosch from 10 year old Bush vines situated in Helderberg region. Deep granite soils allow for natural low-yielding vines with good acidity.
