Vinifikation
The grapes come from the Stonepine, Rondekop, Rooiland, and Kopland vineyards. These vineyards all face north to northwest, with granite, Hutton, and Clovelly soils. The vines were planted at 4000 vines per hectare. The average yield was 4 tons per hectare. The Cabernet was fermented in open-top fermenters between 28-32°C for 21 days. The cap was pumped over every 3-4 hours to maximize color and tannin extraction. The wine was aged for 24 months in 225l oak barrels.
