The grapes come from Hercules Pillar and Klipdam in south-western Paarl, in the Muldersvlei area, with weathered granite and clay shale. They are hand-picked; 70 percent are destemmed, while the remainder is fermented as whole bunches in small open vessels and stainless steel tanks. The wine then matures for ten months in used oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. It shows cherry, plum and spice, with medium weight, a fruit-driven character and excellent drinkability. The bottling is only minimally filtered and stabilised; a natural deposit may occur.
