The 2020 season brought another exceptional harvest. The winter saw good rainfall – only slightly less compared to the previous year. Springtime conditions were ideal, leading to even bud-break and homogenous shoot growth. The summer ripening period was consistent and moderate, and without heat spikes, bringing about uniform flavour development and phenolic ripeness in the grapes.

Tasting note
Conditions in the Banghoek Valley are exceptionally favourable for Chardonnay, as is reflected in this superb vintage. The wine displays a golden hue in the glass. On the nose, a flintiness is detectable among inviting aromas of peaches, honey melon, apricots and freshly baked brioche. The palate complements the aromas with exceptionally vibrant quince, papaya, ginger and loquat. Vibrant acidity and an exceptional mouth-feel gives a long and satisfying finish.
Vinification
The grapes were picked from two blocks, planted on alluvial soil and weathered table mountain sandstone. Bunches were hand-sorted and whole bunch pressed in a pneumatic press, on a gentle Champagne cycle. Juice settled overnight before being racked to 228 L French oak barrels. Natural fermentation completed within 2 months, and partial malolactic conversion allowed on some barrels. After maturing for 10 months, the wine was gently fined and filtered before bottling
