Situated in the Paarl Valley, 60 kilometres north east of Cape Town, this 160 hectare estate has been cultivated for more than 300 years with records showing that the farm was one of the first in the region to be dedicated to producing wine grapes. 70 hectares of the estate are planted with vines across 13 different soil types, ranging from loam to decomposed granite and sandstone. Varieties are matched to soil type and planted in one hectare blocks with each plot being vinified separately. The winery operates by gravity and no additives are used including less than half the normal doses of sulphites.

Tasting Notes

With an astonishing seven years on its lees before release, the winery has created a textural masterpiece with a lovely core of bright acidity and a biscuity, citrus, zesty twist reminiscent of lemon-meringue pie crust. Bone dry, there is no need to build palate weight through sugar as this gloriously textured palate was built on the lees and lots of patience. With an organic bonus. It will keep you reaching for a second glass while constantly playing with your mind.
