Details
Two mature, trellised vineyards, both in the premium, maritime Stellenbosch Appellation : one on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain the other in Devon Valley. Both overlook False Bay and towards the Atlantic Ocean. The soils are composed of deposed granite, with a little clay, which give rise to the excellent depth and minerality of the wine, a sound balance and spicy flavours.
While the Helderberg grapes lend more structure, spice and minerality; the Devon Valley grapes give riper fruit and juiciness.
