The grapes were brought back to the cellar where they were de-stemmed and sorted to remove any unwanted berries. The berries were crushed and the juice was settled overnight and only clean free-run juice was transferred to the fermented vessels. The wine was naturally fermented in Ceramic Amphora, a Diamanté Wine tanks and French oak barrels.

The 2020 vintage shows another extremely dry year for South African wines with a low production rate. These extreme drought conditions resulted in small berries with an intense concentration of fruit. Perdeberg's wines have shown a notable elegance with a fine tannin structure, intense colour and fruit-forward flavours, all of which show impressive ageing potential. Made from a Single Vineyard of Chenin Blanc on top Paardeberg Mountain, this wine, presents a marriage of skill, unique terroir and the noble qualities of the Chenin Blanc grapes. The soil is mostly decomposed granite and this gives natural acidity and freshness to the wine with excellent ageing potential. The grapes were hand-harvested at 23° Balling in the early morning in small crates.

The wine was aged on the lees for eight months before blending the different components to create perfect harmony.
