Information

Varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon

Vineyard: 750 meters above sea-level Ceres Plateaux grapes in sandstone soil. Vines trained according to the vertical shoot positioning method on a traditional 3 wire trellis system.

All aged for 18 months. The whole clusters pressed after 18 months of skin and stem aging, blended and bottled.
