The vines grow on the southern slopes of Helderberg near Stellenbosch in weathered granite soils; the maritime climate with cool Atlantic winds supports even ripening and natural acidity. The wine was fermented spontaneously or with natural yeasts, without enzymes or fining agents, and bottled unfiltered. Stylistically, it is described as elegant and approachable, ready to drink yet with further ageing potential. For this vintage, the producer does not publish precise information on the maturation vessel, duration, fruit profile, tannins or alcohol content.
