Traditional reductive Sauvignon Blanc Winemaking. Three weeks before bottling, 3% fresh Cabernet Sauvignon was added to the Sauvignon Blanc until the perfect rosy coral colour was matched.

Gentle slopes exposed to the micro-climate of the Atlantic Ocean results in the vineyards being influenced by the cool air-flows and morning mists so typical of a maritime climate. In summer a firm south-easter wind fans the vines ensuring temperate and sunny ripening conditions. Along with dryland farming on soils of decomposed granite with a high clay content, the vines offer intensely flavoured fruit, resulting in wines of elegance, character and structure.

Post Fermentation lees contact for 1 month, stirred up once a week to enhance mouth feel and concentration. Blended 3 weeks before bottling and stabilization.
