Origin

Wine of Origin South Africa, Tulbagh Basin.

In the vineyard

The Saronsberg Winery is located in the Tulbagh Basin, surrounded by the Obiqua Mountains to the west, Winterhoek Mountain to the north and the Witzenberg Mountains to the east, whose peaks exceed 1,500 meters. The microclimate is temperate, with characteristics similar to the Mediterranean climate. The soils are rich in clay.

In the cellar

After harvesting by hand in the early morning hours, the grapes are carefully selected by a highly qualified staff of 25. The grapes are then deposited in closed or open fermentation tanks. There the must is left to rest for 3-5 days at a temperature of 8°. The must is pumped over once a day during this short period. Then, after raising the temperature of the tanks to 18°, the must is inoculated with selected yeasts. Fermentation in the tanks takes place at an average temperature of 24°C.
At this stage, 4 punching-downs and 1 pump-over per day take place manually. The must rests on the skins for 11 to 24 days and is then racked into 300-liter French oak barrels from Allier (80% new and 20% second use). After malolactic fermentation, the wine is left to rest for 10 months. Then the wine from the different lots is blended and placed to mature in barrels for a total of 20 months. The wine is then filtered and bottled.
