About
Sourced from undulating vineyards in the Swartland region of the Western Cape. Vines are rooted in sandstone soils and take in the Mediterranean style climate with its dry hot summer days, cool nights and mild, wet winters. Lo & behold, the perfect conditions for grapes to ripen slowly and develop complex and vibrant flavours.
The Chenin Blanc and Viognier are vinified seperately. 80% of Chenin Blanc undergoes a natural fermentation in stainless steel plus 10% aged in old French oak 300L barrels. The Viognier is fermented in cement tanks. Blended before bottling.
