Point of difference: One harvest day. For a co-fermented wine, all the grapes go in on the same day. That’s tricky. Grapes don’t all ripen at the same time, so we can only do this in vintages where the timing lines up.
Whole bunch, with a twist. We ferment with whole bunches, stems and all. To keep things balanced, we reduce the stems a little each day during fermentation. The goal is to get structure and freshness without extracting too much of the unwanted green tannins. It’s a lot of timing and checking, but that’s how we shape the wine. Elegant and simply delicious!
GSM is a classic Southern Rhône blend, think Châteauneuf-du-pap
Grenache gives red cherry and strawberry, plus alcohol and body. Syrah adds structure, dark fruit, and black pepper. Mourvèdre brings savory, meaty, earthy depth and helps the wine age.
Ripe plum and black cherry, with spice, fynbos herbs, and subtle dusty/earthy notes. The oak is supportive and do not dominate the wine at all. Tannins are super integrated and polished.
Lamb braai, boerewors rolls, mushroom risotto, or aged Gouda.
