Viognier grapes were sourced from a single mountain side block in the Breedekloof.The site is north -west facing, which brings a large amount of sunlight, resulting in bright intense flavours. It is one of the highest sites for Viognier in the Cape at around 600 meters above sea level. Yields are naturally low at around six tons per hectare.

The grapes were destemmed, settled, and fermented with wild yeast in a clay amphora egg, old 500L barrels and 300-litre 2nd fill French barrels.
