We aspire to create a New World style of Cabernet Sauvignon, with voluptuous fruit and complexity, and a bold, yet ripe tannin structure.
in the vineyard : South-facing vines on an elevated hill of granite, thriving on a combination of crumbled rock and clay, the result of countless years of decomposition; consequently the wine is named ‘Granietbult’ translating to ‘granite hill/hump’ from Afrikaans.
in the cellar : The fruit was cold soaked for 10 days at 8ºC under a CO2 blanket. Thereafter the wine was fermented up to a maximum temperature of 28º Celsius. During fermentation the wine was pumped over 3 times daily to maintain a low temperature in the cap of solids. 30 days post-maceration. Both free-run and press juice were used. 18 months in french oak barrels, of which 40% new.
