The grapes come from an old vineyard planted in 1956 in the Paarl region, where the soil consists of weathered granite. The wine is created by Duncan Savage, one of South Africa's most respected winemakers, and is made with minimal intervention to express the full character of both the grape variety and the terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"390\" data-end=\"853\"\u003eAt first glance, the wine has a clear, light golden color. The nose is intense and complex with notes of yellow stone fruits such as peach and apricot, ripe pears and fresh citrus peel. At the same time, there is a herbal touch, perhaps with a touch of dried thyme or wild South African fynbos plants, as well as a clear minerality that brings to mind wet stones or crushed granite. There is also a touch of spice and an almost salty character, which gives the nose extra depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"855\" data-end=\"1259\"\u003e In the mouth the wine is both full-bodied and elegant with a lively, precise acidity that gives freshness and excitement. The texture is creamy and rounded, which comes from yeast contact and aging in large neutral wooden barrels, without the wine losing its elegance. The taste follows the nose with ripe fruit, citrus peel and mineral undertones, and the finish is long, salty and complex with a slightly spicy bite that lingers for a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"1261\" data-end=\"1586\"\u003eThe wine is refined and full of character with a great balance between richness and freshness.

The grapes are pressed as whole clusters and ferment spontaneously or with wild yeast (at least without commercial yeast added), and the wine is matured in large French oak barrels (500 liters), with approximately 20% new oak.
