Raw almonds and marzipan leads the first impressions of this wine, backed up by floral aromas. The fresh core of the palate is beautifully balanced by the tannin and structure. A savoury, almost saline finish rounds off the profile. A brilliant match to all things fresh from the garden to the ocean. From South Africa’s only Grenache Gris vineyard, grown in the granite soils on the Voor-Paardeberg, with an average yield of 8-10 tons per hectare. Grapes were harvested on the 17th of February. Fermentation was done in open-top fermenters, daily pump-overs and punch-downs for 12 days. After fermentation the grapes were pressed into stainless steel tanks and left on the gross lees until the final blending and bottling. ANALYSIS: ALC 13.5% | RS 2.2 g/l | TA 5.4 g/l | pH 3.43
