VINTAGE & WINEMAKING

Vineyards

Portuguese varietals where planted in Calitzdorp during the late 1970’s with Tinta Barocca being the first to find its way to the Klein Karoo.  Now Calitzdorp is known as South Africa’s Port Capital with these varietals leading the way. Vines are trellised and micro irrigated.

Winemaking

Selected bunches are handpicked mid to late February from row selected vines in specific blocks at 26o Balling.  Bunches are destemmed, crushed and rapidly cooled in a lagar.  Grapes are left to spontaneously start fermenting after which at the desired sugar the fermentation is stopped by adding alcohol to the must.  Skins are then pressed and the wine is matured in big vats for 20 months.
