Fruit selection is made from three different plots in the Stellenbosch region, picked very early in the morning at different stages of ripeness. This enables a wide spectrum of flavours and acidity to be reached. Winemaker Francois Van Zyl, is keen to produce an expressive dry white wine showing a lovely green tint with capiscum, passion fruit and gooseberries on the nose. This is then complimented with a lively rush of lemon minerality in the finish.
One of the Cape`s more recent wine estates having been purchased by the Laibach-Kuehner family in the early 1990s. An initial investment saw the 40 hectare property totally replanted and this was followed by the building of a state of the art and contemporary winery. Stuffed full of modern winemaking kit but using traditional barrel ageing, this is a wine estate with a growing reputation right on top of its game. Managed by the very likeable Mike Malherbe, a totally fanatical grape grower and in tandem with the exceptionally talented winemaker, Francois van Zyl they endeavour to craft modern drinkable and delicious wines for a sophisticated and discerning market.
