Product Description:
Girl Next Door is a wine that expresses its location. Violets, plums, cherries, white pepper and black olives, all underlined by a salinity that comes from the cold Atlantic. The 2022 vintage is firmer and more graphite-like than the 2021, a wine that will benefit from many, many years in the bottle.

Vinifikation
Produced in minute quantities from a salty, wind-battered and bruised 0.38-hectare Syrah vineyard near Fish Hoek in Cape Town. Originally planted for ornamental value on sandy gravel soils, these gnarled, 15-year-old trellised vines now yield some of the best Syrah grapes in the entire Western Cape. Birds love this vineyard, so netting and extreme sorting in the vineyard and cellar is the norm. Grapes are chilled overnight before spontaneous fermentation in open-top fermenters and conical vats. About 50% of the fruit is left as whole bunches and remains on the skins for 2 weeks before pressing. Maturation takes place for 10 months in French oak barrels (500L).
