Producentens noter (engelsk): Vineyards: The grapes for our 2021 Chenin Blanc come from three sustainably farmed vineyard parcels in different parts of the Swartland: One parcel of 40-year-old Chenin planted in the stony Shale and Schist based soils of Kasteelberg, and two parcels of 40+ year-old dry land, bush vine Chenin grown in the decomposed Granite soils of the Paardeberg. Harvest: These parcels were harvested were between the 8 th and 17th of February 2021 with yields of 3 to 6 tons/ha = 24 to 33 HL/ha. Winemaking: The grapes were chilled in our cold room then pressed whole-bunch, which allowed for the juice to settle overnight. The juice was then racked to tank and older French oak barrels for fermentation with indigenous yeasts and this process lasted approximately six weeks. The barrels were then racked, blended with the tank fermented portion and bottled.
