VINTAGE CONDITIONS
The carry-over effect of the previous three year’s drought is still visible in this
vintage, despite the higher rainfall during the season. The resulting crop was
smaller, but of high quality. Despite the relative low water stress, the cool weather
contributed to smaller berries and less irrigation was needed this growing season.
WINEMAKING / MATURATION
Fermentation took place in open top concrete fermenters at 290C. The floating skins
were punched down by hand, every 2 hours during fermentation. The juice was
drawn off the skins after 5 days. After malolactic fermentation the wine was
matured for 24 months in 50% new and 50% second fill 225L French Nevers oak
barrels.
TASTING NOTES
A complex nose of dark aromas of black berry, cassis, blueberry with tobacco
cedar and oak spice. The palate is supple and juicy – with concentrated black fruit
supported by oak spice, roasted nuts and a hint of fresh fynbos. The tannins are
firm yet well-knit and integrated.
