Mellifera Noble Late Harvest 375ml

The perfect ending to a meal—pair with crème brûlée or a cheese selection.

Stellenbosch Kloof enjoys a cooler Mediterranean climate with mari- time influences from False Bay, 14km to the south, and a refreshing breeze channelled from the West Coast’s Benguela current 24km to the north-west. These two breezes culminate at the top end of the ravine and bring in early morning mists, especially from False Bay. Consequently, temperatures in our meso-climate can be measured at least 3° Celsius cooler than inland Stellenbosch during ripening peri- ods. This adds a unique characteristic to Jordan wines.

The utmost patience was needed to make this wine, taking the whole day to press the raisined berries. The juice was racked into a stainless steel tank and fermented between 13 and 15°C using a specially selected strain of yeast capable of handling higher sugars.
