WINEMAKER'S NOTES
A limited edition varietal grown on the only Barbarossa hectare (one of four in the world planted in 1978) in Southern Africa.
Minimal water was administered to the vines during growth to maintain sustainable quality in the wine which produced a vintage which is remarkably lighter in taste.
