Estate White is sourced and hand-selected from our cooler, south-east-facing vineyards overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Elegant and refined with mineral overtones, and a flinty core dominated by notes of lemon, crushed rosemary and fresh apple.

ORIGIN
The Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from the top of the Schaapenberg vineyards, the most extremely situated vineyards on the farm. These grapes offer incredible intensity and purity. The Semillon comes from the oldest vineyard blocks on the farm, situated on 2 sites, one with shale soil and one with alluvial soil.

VINIFICATION
The grapes were hand-picked and sorted. Both the Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon were whole-bunch fermented. The Sauvignon Blanc was given skin contact prior to pressing. Post-pressing, the juice was taken to a combination of barrels and foudres for fermentation. Various ages of barrels were utilised and the wines spent 10 months in oak before careful blending to achieve a characterful wine.
