Grapes were harvested in different batches and fermented separately using different yeast cultures.
Fermentation lasted 5 days at approximately 25°Celsius. The wine was given pump overs every 4 hours for 15 minutes.
After alcoholic fermentation the wine was racked and underwent malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks and 2nd fill barrels. Wines were racked and placed back in second fill barrels to mature for 12 barrels. The barrels were blended together after 12 months and bottled.

-
On the nose plums and blueberries with sweet vanilla undertones followed by soft mouth filling tannin. This wine lends its self to rich lamb casseroles and gentle Malay type curries
-
Sweet cherries, plum and spicy notes on the nose with hints of vanilla on the pallet followed by supple, juicy tannin adding good length.
-
Smokey bacon, butterscotch, vanilla and sweet black fruit with spice followed onto the palate a savoury mix of fruit and mocha with silky tannins to finish.
-
On the nose distinct coffee, rich dark chocolate and baked plums. The ripe subtle tannins create a very well balanced wine. This unique style of Pinotage is a perfect accompaniment…
