The grapes come from bush vines planted in 1972 on the lower western slopes of the Helderberg. The well-drained soil consists of weathered granite; cool breezes from False Bay and mountain air at night extend ripening and preserve the natural acidity. After hand-harvesting and sorting, the wine fermented naturally for 18 to 20 days and was hand-plunged. It matured for around 18 months in French barriques, half new and half second-fill, followed by twelve months in bottle. It shows red cherry, cranberry, rose and herbal notes, brisk acidity, fine tannins and a long, dry finish.
