Opis 49% Cabernet Franc, 30% Shiraz ,21% Merlot Grapes were harvested at 24.5°B, destalked and transfered into closed fermenters where a portion of the juice was withdrawn to achieve better concentration. The remaining juice together with the grape skins were allowed to ferment at controlled temperatures between 25°C and 28°C. In order to optimise colour, flavour and extract uptake, the juice remained with the skins for a period of approximately four days and was only withdrawn when the sugar level dropped to 5°B.

The remaining juice together with the grape skins were allowed to ferment at controlled temperatures between 25°C and 28°C. In order to optimise colour, flavour and extract uptake, the juice remained with the skins for a period of approximately four days and was only withdrawn when the sugar level dropped to 5°B. Juice remaining in the skins were recovered with the use of a gentle tank press. Further fermentation took place in closed tanks, whereafter malolactic fermentation was induced. On completion the wine was racked from the lees and retained in tanks for further maturation. The wine was cold stabilised before bottling. A blend of classic cultivars Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Shiraz creates a fun-loving with complex concentration of fruit and flavour. Pleasantly refreshing if chilled in summer. Good accompaniment to cheese, light barbecued meals and spicy seafood. Cellaring Enjoy now or over the next two years.
