Interesting Facts
The wine is made from grapes harvested from two sites in Schwarzland - Porseleinberg (80%) and Goldmine (20%). The grapes from each site are vinified separately, as each site has its own unique characteristics. Afterwards, the wine is sent to oak barrels, where it is further aged for 18 months.
