Climate The cooler south–facing aspect, hosts the more sensitive and aromatic white-skinned grape varieties, as seen in our Timepiece Chenin Blanc. Altitude: 195 m. a.s.l. Exposure: South.
Soil composition Decomposed granite and loam.
Wine making The juice was fermented in a combination of oak barrels and clay amphorae. 51% of the juice was barrel-fermented in 228L 3rd & 4th fill French Oak barrels and 49% in 400L clay amphorae for a period of 6 months. Amphora has the natural ability to keep the lees in constant suspension during fermentation.
Aging This was followed by malolactic fermentation in both the amphora and barrel, and matured “sur-lie” for 6 months with occasional “barrel rolling” to add richness to the palate. Six barrels were naturally fermented. No sulphur was added during the course of vinification and only at final bottling.
