Winemaking
Fruit Source
From our own Oude Nektar farm in Jonkershoek.
Terroir
This is from a small, half-hectare block at the far end of another vineyard on the farm. The majority of this vineyard has sandy soils, but there is a small section of decomposed granite in the corner – ideal soils for full-bodied reds.
