Description
These vineyards are planted on decomposed Table Mountain
sandstone shale in combination with decomposed granite soils.
Grapes were harvested by hand and delicately whole-bunch pressed.
Fermentation took place in 225l older small French Oak Barrels for
a period of 9 months before blending and bottling.
Producer Profile
De Kleine Wijn Koöp (the little wine co-op) started out as just a few good okes making awesome wines with cool labels, calling in winemaker friends to make each very limited-batch cuvée. Now in the talented hands of winemaker Wynand Grobler, the range has gained greater focus and direction without losing any of the original irreverence and adventure. Given Wynand’s experience in the valley, Franschhoek is becoming a bit of a calling card but like in the past the “little co-op” spreads its net far and wide seeking out great grapes across the beautiful and varied terroirs of the Cape winelands.
