The grapes come from a single, wind-exposed, south-facing block on Schapenberg at an altitude of approximately 240 to 260 metres, around four kilometres from the Atlantic. The vines grow on weathered granite and compacted sandstone. The hand-picked whole bunches ferment spontaneously with wild yeasts in open wooden fermenters, then mature for 25 months in used 600-litre barrels. The wine shows red and black berries, floral notes, fynbos and white pepper. It is medium- to light-bodied, fresh to slightly tart, with fine tannins.
