In the Cellar
The grapes were gently crushed and destemmed. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks with pump-overs three times a day. After fermentation, the wines were matured for 16 months in 80% French and 20% American oak barrels. 30% new French oak was used.

The Darling Region
Darling is known for the exceptional quality of its Sauvignon Blanc, the variety which initially spearheaded the viticultural progress of this district, which is just an hour’s drive away from Cape Town. At its heart lies the charming West Coast village of Darling, tucked away between vineyard-covered hills and golden wheat fields, which features beautifully restored Victorian houses. The area is famous for its colourful display of wildflowers in spring and boasts several wild flower reserves. The country’s biggest eco-friendly music festival, Rocking the Daisies, is held here each year. Grapes from this ward are highly contested for by various cellars and winemakers, proving its merit. The most coveted grapes from this ward are Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz and, to a lesser extent, Pinot Noir.
