    STORY BEHIND THE WINE

    Whole bunches are pressed while the cold juice go to tank to settle. After 24h of settling, the juice is racked to tanks as well as 300L and 500L barrels for fermentation. After fermentation is complete, the barrels are topped and all is wine left on the lees for up to 12 months. The tanks and barrels are racked off the lees just before bottling to make up the final blend.

    Founded in 1692, Stellenzicht’s vineyards and winery is located on the dramatic slopes of the Helderberg Mountains in Stellenbosch that benefit from cool maritime breezes. The current owners of this unique farm believe in protecting the natural resources through sustainable farming. These efforts help create an eco-system that protects the local fauna and flora aswell as the dragonfly population ( hence the label!).
