In The Vineyard: For the 2017 vintage we selected a Cabernet Franc vineyard 360m above sea level on a South West facing slope – facing on to False Bay. We farmed and harvested this Cabernet Franc specifically for making Rosé.

About The Harvest: The grapes for our Rose were picked at 22° Brix.

In The Cellar: The grapes were crushed, separated from the skins, settled, racked and fermented the same as white wine. The wine was fermented cold, 12° – 14° C to retain fresh red fruit aromas. The delicate pink colour for the Rose is derived from the red pigments that are released during the crushing process.

Acidity: Crisp Acidity

Barrel Treatment: Unwooded
