Climate | Stellenbosch Kloof enjoys a cooler Mediterranean climate with maritime influences from False Bay, 14km to the south, and a refreshing breeze channelled from the West Coast’s Benguela current 24 km to the North-West. These two breezes culminate at the top end of the ravine and bring in early morning mists, especially from False Bay. Altitude: 220-365 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 amphora. 67% of the juice was barrel-fermented in 228L 2nd & 3rd fill French Oak barrels and 33% in 400L clay amphora for a period of 6 months. |
Aging | Malolactic fermentation took place in both amphora and barrel. Amphora has the natural ability to keep the lees in constant suspense during fermentation. The wine was matured “sur-lie” for 6 months with occasional “barrel rolling” to add richness to the palate. Four barrels were natural ferment. No sulphur was added during vinification. |
