The Chardonnay vines grow in Paarl Valley at the foot of the Klein-Drakenstein Mountains, on 13 different soil types, including clay, weathered granite and sandstone. The grapes are whole-bunch pressed; the juice ferments naturally in stainless steel, with 10 % fermented in French oak casks and subsequently blended back in. After 24 months on the lees, the second fermentation takes place in the bottle, followed by a further 60 months on the lees. The Brut combines toasted hazelnut bread, quince, green apple and citrus with lively acidity and a creamy, full mouthfeel.
