The grapes for this wine came from a single block of 10 year old bush vines on the Hoopenburg farm.
About The Harvest

The grapes were picked at a ripe 25 ° Balling late February.

In The Cellar
Fermentation on the skins lasted 3 weeks. The grapes were then pressed off, with the wine going into French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation occurred. Here the wine was aged for 24 months in 2nd and 3rd fill barrels. The wine was then lightly filtered and bottled.
