This wine was produced off our Block 5 which was planted in 2001 into soil which had been treated organically since 1996. The fruit was machine harvested in the cool of the evening and processed at a local winery under the direction of Folkert Janssen.

The resulting wine exhibits ripe, sweet fruit with rich peppery flavours and soft tannins.
