WINEMAKER Tania Kleintjes ORIGIN Coastal region TERROIR / SOILCoastal Region VINEYARD AND CLIMATE CONDITIONSOrganically grown grapes from Stellenbosch and Paarl. The differences in altitude, aspect, solar radiation and wind exposure result in significant mesoclimate differences. This, coupled with variations in soil, created this complex wine with its unique character and style. WINEMAKING The organically grown Shiraz grapes were hand harvested in the morning in 8kg lug boxes. The grapes were cooled at the cellar before hand-sorting. No skin contact was given, and a low-intervention approach was used throughout the winemaking process. The juice was fermented in stainless-steel tanks to retain fruit freshness. The wine spent 3 months on its gross lees to enhance its structure before bottling. DOWNLOAD TASTING NOTE
