The grapes come from selected parcels near Stanford, around five kilometres from the Atlantic Ocean. The cool coastal climate, Fynbos vegetation and highly alkaline marine limestone shape the wine’s origin. The grapes were harvested by hand; fermentation took place spontaneously with natural yeasts, 34 per cent in egg-shaped fermentation vessels and 66 per cent in third-use barriques. The wine shows fresh fruit, pronounced minerality, a creamy texture, soft acidity and finely integrated oak notes. It is medium-bodied, salty and spicy, with good length.
