Grape Varieties:

100% Bot River fruit from 40 Year old vines

Method and Maturation:

Hand harvested. 50% Crushed and 45% whole bunch pressed. Fermented in barrel. 5% component of skin fermented Chenin. Spontaneous fermented. 

100% of the volume was matured for 11 months in 300- and 400L selected French Burgundian oak barrels. 30% of the oak matured component was in new oak.

Wine Tasting Notes:

Decadent entry of saline oystershell and freshly cut ripe yellow peach slices, revealing the wine’s spontaneous oak-fermentation nature and maritime origin. Perfumed layers of sweet cinnamon spice, vanilla pod and caramel custard. Subtle crushed stone flint and light lime and lemon peel, completes the intriguing bouquet.

Confident, light in body with a dried peach acidity, supported by saline-textured dominance. Lingering flinty mouthfeel, perfectly in balance with beautiful oyster-shell freshness, carried by a mouthwatering chalky pithiness, all attributed to the 40-year age of the vines.

Delightful already but will reward amply with a richer experience within the next 5 -15 years.
