The grapes come from a small, particularly cool block on the slopes of the Helderberg. The vines grow on weathered granite; during the day, winds from False Bay provide cooling, while at night cold air flows down from the mountain. The wine was fermented naturally, without enzymes, preservatives or stabilising agents, and matured for twelve months in French oak barrels. The nose shows honey, lemon, orange marmalade and green apple. On the palate, ripe tropical fruit, fine minerality and lively acidity combine with a long, fresh finish.
