Vineyard:

Sourced from the Klein Drakenstein slopes in Paarl, rooted in structured clay-granite soils that enhance depth and balance.

Harvest:

The grapes were harvested in early February during the coolest parts of the day, with a combination of earlymorning picking and selective night harvesting to retain freshness. Grapes was hand-selected to ensure only the best bunches reached the cellar. The vineyard produces a focused yield of around 8 tons per hectare.

In the Cellar:

Grapes were gently whole-bunch pressed and slowly fermented to preserve fresh fruit and floral nuance. With no oak maturation, the wine remained bright and expressive, while extended lees contact added roundness, balance, and a softly textured palate.
