The pursuit of finding the origins of the name is somewhat of a legend. On top of that, the creator never reveals a secret of how the wine is made and will tweak every vintage. As a result, the blend will vary depending on the growing season. Grapes are cooled in our cold room then transferred to our stainless steel and concrete tanks for fermentation. A combination of partially destemmed and whole-bunch clusters ferment spontaneously with minimal sulphur additions and no acidification. A soft délestage is performed 2-3 times per day.

Syrah is the predominant variety and accounts for a 73% contribution to the blend. Grenache (11%) from bush-vines on Porseleinberg is the subtle superstar of the blend that offers a perfumy brightness and allows the wine to deliver a gastronomic texture. The moderate conditions were a welcome relief for Swartland Cabernet Sauvignon (7%). The cooler, balanced growing season was particularly beneficial in providing a more elegant, old-world style of the variety. In summary: 2022 is a vintage which shows exceptional balance and texture with a youthful elegance. These hallmarks certainly favour significant ageing potential.
