These vines have an age range of approximately 12 years. They thrive in schist soil types, contributing to the unique character of the wine. The yield is carefully managed at 4 tons per hectare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes undergo a meticulous handpicking process in the early morning and are then cooled overnight at 5°C in a temperature-controlled room. Upon processing, forty percent of the grapes undergo crushing and destemming, while the remaining sixty percent ferment as whole clusters. The natural fermentation process unfolds in open fermenters, where gentle punch-downs twice daily aid in extraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing fermentation, the wine undergoes an additional maceration period on the skins for seven days before being pressed into neutral oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation occurs within the barrels, adding complexity to the wine's profile. After racking from the lees and a minimal sulphur dose, the wine ages for ten months in barrels before its final bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes and food pairings: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColour:  Light Purple\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNose: Aromatics of ripe strawberry, orange zest and dries herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalate: Juicy and supple, it also has layered integrity\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kloovenberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43084546768995,"sku":null,"price":1260.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/5640\/7907\/files\/Will_MillerWineTemplate_46d207ef-4e19-4fa2-ae11-713cead051b1.png?v=1736332395"},{"product_id":"stellenbosch-vineyards-limited-release-grenache-2020","title":"Stellenbosch Vineyards Limited Release Grenache 2023 per Case","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePhilosophy in a Bottle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOur Grenache epitomizes our winemaking team's ultimate philosophy: to craft wines that are elegant, graceful, and truly rewarding.

From this meticulous process, only the finest 7 barrels are selected and blended to create this exceptional wine, with just 2800 bottles produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWinemaker's Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUpon pouring, this wine bursts from the glass with notes of candied red currants and an intense fruitiness.
