In the Cellar
The Syrah grapes are handpicked and hand sorted. A third of the whole bunch clusters are crushed by foot and thereafter the remaining 70% is destemmed into concrete tanks. Spontaneous, natural fermentation occurs with minimal punch downs and pump overs. Natural malolactic fermentation occurs in older French casks and larger 2500L Foudres. The wine ages for 14 months in oak and another 3 months in stainless steel to harmonise after final blending.
About the winery: Reyneke
Natural solutions make for better wine, naturally. The Reyneke Vineyards are herbicide, pesticide and fungicide free. Just like any organic vineyard should be. With biodynamic farming, the soil becomes ‘alive’ and they let this energise the cellar. They follow a non-intervention approach to make the wine, rather guiding the winemaking process in order to display the individuality of the Uitzicht farm.
