Winemaking
Fruit Source
From our highest elevation Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard on the estate.
Terroir
This vineyard is an ideal combination of soil and site. It has a very stoney decomposed granite soil with a clay subsoil and it has an almost perfect aspect towards the afternoon sun. This aspect and elevation mean that the vineyard received almost 45 minutes more sunlight than the Stellenbosch average.
