IN THE VINEYARD : We use small-batch winemaking to enable us to identify and blend the best of the batches and to deliver exceptional wine. With this Sauvignon Blanc, the specific terroir is showcased extremely well as it delivers fresh apple and flinty characters. To preserve the freshness and delicate aromas we harvested and processed the grapes in the early morning hours.
THE HARVEST : The Sauvignon Blanc grapes come from two vineyards on Boskloof, in the Cape Agulhas region, where the vines grow in Bokkeveld, Koffieklip and gravel soils. Known for its cool climate, the vineyards on Boskloof are constantly exposed to a cool breeze from the Atlantic Ocean. Grapes from both vineyards were harvested to add to the complexity of this wine.
IN THE CELLAR : We stir the wines on the fine lees in the tanks to gain complexity until we are happy with the volume. We then rack the wine off the lees and age it in a variety of tanks and 500-litre barrels for approximately four months before we blend and bottle the wine.
