Description
The nose shows subtle notes of cherry, red currant, rose and fynbos while the palate has lovely fruit integrity and flavour intensity without being weighty. It’s a wonderfully balanced wine with bright acidity and fine, powdery tannins

Vinification
The grapes were destemmed and kept as whole berries. A portion of the stems were left outside in the sun to dry for 5 days and then it was added back into the tank. The dried-out stem’s ads perfumed aromatics and texture to the wine. Punch downs took place twice daily. Maturation took place in a ceramic clay Amphora and older French oak barrels for 10 months.
