Deep, fertile and well-drained alluvial and riverbed soils derive from the nearby Molenaars River, which forks into two beyond the Du Toitskloof Mountain range. Lush vineyard growth is observed in the area.
Grapes were handpicked at optimum physiological ripeness (± 24-25°B), de-stemmed and lightly crushed. The juice was left on the skins for ±10 hours to extract the trademark blush, then cold soaked and racked. Pressed juice was blended with free run juice and fermented in stainless steel tanks with white wine yeast at 12-15ºC until dry. The wine resided on the lees for 3-6 months before stabilization and bottling.
