Vinification Traditional, pressing of the grapes, racking, alcoholic then malolactic complete fermentation, natural cold clarification.
Tasting notes Aromas of white orchid flowers and pear. A rich and creamy mouth- feel with fruity citrus flavours. A subtle fresh spritziness. An elegant refined wine.

When to drink and how to store This wine just gets better and better especially by year 2 and 3. It should be drunk within 5 years depending on the vintage. Store in a cool dry place away from light and vibration.
A few words from the winemaker This wine is for ladies…. and heart patients since 1968 (the 1st heart transplant took place in the Cape of South Africa).
