Vinifikation High up on the Witzenberg mountain range in Ceres, at an altitude of 960 meters above sea level, this unique 'appellation' features South Africa's only truly continental climate, with winter temperatures frequently dropping below freezing. The cooler nighttime temperatures and warmer daytime temperatures during the growing season lead to slower ripening and more concentrated fruit. The Ceres grapes display surprisingly cooler climate characteristics compared to other regions of the Western Cape. The grapes were fully destemmed, crushed, and then fermented in a closed tank with extended skin contact and regular punch-downs. Malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. Subsequently, the wine was aged in used French oak barrels for 12 months.
