The vines stand in the cool Walker Bay site near the Atlantic, on highly alkaline marine limestone soils. The three varieties are vinified separately and, after malolactic fermentation, aged for 20 months in used French barriques before being blended shortly before bottling. Fermentation takes place spontaneously with natural yeasts, with an average of 16 days on the skins in open 1,000-litre fermenters. The wine shows red fruit, berries, wild herbs and spicy, earthy notes; it is medium-bodied and fresh, with well-integrated, rounded tannins.
