The small and aromatic berries for this stunning Pinotage provide excellent structure, remarkable elegance and refinement. The grapes were crushed and fermented in open fermenters of French oak and at a capacity of 1000 liters and regulated 25° - 28° C. Malolactic fermentation was completed in older French barriques, after which the wine was aged for 22 months in 100% new French oak barrels (225 l) before being bottled for final enjoyment.
