This is the fourth release of this utterly delicious and time consuming bottling. This vintage again omits Colombard, and is mostly Pinotage with just 30% Chenin Blanc. All the grapes are grown organically in the Malmesbury region where the soils are mostly decomposed granite with Malmesbury shale. Vineyards are planted on south-east facing slopes with about 1,000 feet elevation and roughly 23 miles to the Atlantic Ocean.
The color is a gently hazy coral-toned pink. On the nose it gives aromas of rhubarb, guava, bread yeast, and raspberry. Very fresh in the mouth, with crunchy cranberry fruit and a savory edge. Delicious and dangerously drinkable.
