Treatment in the cellar

The Cecilia Chenin Blanc was made from grapes of old bush vines planted in Piekenierskloof in 1962. The grape good was handpicked and stored at a regulated temperature of below 10° in the cold room of the winery before being crushed and the free-running juice was directed into tanks. After a short rest period, the juice was skimmed from the settling sediment. The first half of the fermentation process took place in steel tanks, while the second half was transferred to French oak barrels, 500 litres per barrel, where fermentation was completed. The wine then matured in barrel for seven months before being bottled for final enjoyment.
