From this winery
Simonsig Wine Estate is synonymous with the history of the South African wine industry, the Stellenbosch wine region, and the Malan family name.
These elements are intertwined in this family-owned farm, where the late Frans Malan produced the first bottle of our much-loved Kaapse Vonkel, South Africa's first Méthode Cap Classique made in the classic bottle-fermented style. He is also honoured for co-founding the thriving Stellenbosch Wine Route, a first in its time. Today, his legacy lives on through his sons, Francois and Johan, and grandchildren Francois-Jacques, Christelle and Michael, the 2nd and 3rd Malan generations at Simonsig Wine Estate. Read more

| Harvest | Careful vineyard sorting ensured that only the highest quality grapes reached the cellar. Following a gentle destemming, the grapes must underwent a two-day cold soak before being inoculated with a carefully selected yeast strain. |
| Wine making | Throughout fermentation, pump overs were carried out 2 to 4 times daily, adjusted based on the fermentation rate and stage. The wine spent 13 to 22 days on its skins before undergoing a gentle pressing into tanks. |
| Aging | It was then racked into barrels for malolactic fermentation and ageing, with a total of three rackings occurring during this ageing process. 18 months in French oak barrels: 26% 1st fill; 27% 2nd fill; 47% 3rd fill. |
