A certified single vineyard on Silkbush farm in Breedekloof. The site is west to the northwest facing and is one of the highest Pinotage vineyards in the Cape at 700 to 750 meters above sea level. The cooling influence of the altitude results in a long hang time for the grapes. This is one of the last Pinotage vineyards to harvest in the country. Yields are naturally low at around six tons per hectare. The vineyard produced a few top-rated Pinotage wines over the years and is rated amongst South Africa’s top Pinotage sites.
