The vines are planted on the lower slopes of the Helderberg on weathered granite. Maritime coolness from False Bay and nocturnal mountain winds promote even ripening and natural acidity. The wine matured for 24 months in French barriques, 70 % new and 30 % used. Commercial yeasts, enzymes and fining agents were avoided; the wine was neither cold-stabilised nor filtered. Aromas include red fruit, plum, black cherry, sweet spices and pencil notes. On the palate it is concentrated and full-bodied, with firm, long-lasting tannins; any sediment is harmless.
