The vines are dry-farmed bush vines planted in 1974 on the lower slopes of the Helderberg, on weathered granite. The maritime climate, with cool breezes from False Bay and cold nocturnal air currents, promotes even ripening and natural acidity. The wine was made without commercial yeasts, enzymes or fining agents, and was neither filtered nor cold-stabilised; it matured for nine months in used French oak casks. It is lightly oak-influenced and medium-bodied, showing floral aromas, strawberry, cherry, raspberry, sweet spices, lively acidity and soft tannins.
