Description
The 2016 vintage was the second year of below average rain fall in Bot River. Due to the dryness and heat, the grapes ripened very quickly and we picked the second week in February with big juicy flavours. As in 2015, we picked both our old block and young block together. Half was fermented in a stainless steel tank and the other half in small, open bin fermenters. A combination of punch downs and pump-overs were used during the fermentation. We added about 10% stalks to the open bin fermenters to give us a little more freshness and complexity.
