Unique Selling Point
Old Vines - 1966
Viticulture
Sourced from old bush vines planted in 1966 at the top of the Piekenierskloof Pass, with cold winters and hot summers. Large bunches carried a balanced mix of green, yellow and lightly sun-kissed berries, each contributing unique flavour nuances. The pristine terroir and healthy vines yield grapes with exceptional concentration, salinity and complexity.
Vinification
Grapes were harvested based on optimal sugar levels and 100% whole-bunch pressed. After natural settling, fermentation took place in seasoned 500L French oak barrels, allowing the varietal’s subtle character to express itself with purity.
