The grapes come from the vineyards of Avondale on the slopes of the Klein-Drakenstein Mountains. The estate farms 13 different soil types there, including clay, granite and sandstone. The hand-harvested grapes ferment slowly in tank, with around 15 percent whole bunches retained. The wine then ages for 16 months in French oak barrels, where malolactic fermentation also takes place. The nose shows violet, red berries, white pepper and orange zest. On the palate, plum, cherry and spices combine with lively acidity, integrated tannins and full body.
