With a deep concentrated colour and aroma, this wine greets your nose with hints of ripe blackcurrant fruits, red plum and soft wooden notes, which follow through onto the palate accompanying chewy black cherries and finishes with well-balanced lingering, leathery tannins and sweet elegant spices.

Rooted in the oldest viticulture soil in the world, made up of decomposed granite on the lower slopes of the Helderberg Mountain. This vineyard enjoyed the refreshingly cool breezes from False Bay (Atlantic Ocean) during the day and cool air at night flowing down the mountain, resulting in even ripening of the berries and good, natural acidity. The macro climate is maritime, with cold wet winters and sunny warm summers, with the Helderberg Ward being the coolest in the Stellenbosch region. The vineyards are meticulously cared for by hand and the crop is reduced to ensure maximum quality. Biodynamic & Organic practices are followed and therefore no herbicides or chemical sprays were used in the production of these grapes.
