Vineyard
Mediterranean
The fruit is from both younger vines, that drive the fruit profile, and low-yielding older vineyards that provide a very finely structured backbone. These vines have been planted in sandy clay-loam soils.
Vinification
Chardonnay fruit, with ripe tropical flavours, is lightly pressed for gentle extraction. Pasteurized in the juice stage of production, this wine is prepared under supervision of the Cape Town Beth Din. It is Mevushal and Kosher for Passover.
