Vineyards in the cool, emerging wine-producing areas close to the southern tip of Africa are combined to produce a wine of Origin Cape South Coast. The wine is thiol-driven, with especially citrus flavours, and green pepper and Cape gooseberry flavours in the background. The palate is very elegant, with a mineral finish.

Conditions after harvest-time in 2019 were favourable for vineyards and good reserves were built up in the vines. Rainfall was lower than average, but there was adequate cold, while water was sufficient to ensure good and even budding. Summer conditions were mild, with no heat peaks — favourable for flavour development. The harvest was larger than in 2019, while acids were slightly lower, probably as a result of the larger production.
