A Heart Breaking Task
May 18, 2009
Miguel Chan and I are Constantia Valley’s newest oenologists, this year we have undertaken the task of producing 1 large barrel of Pinot Noir (the heart break grape), with the guiding hand of award winning wine maker Adam Mason, of Klein Constantia. We drove the fruit down from a very special secret vineyard in the mountains, hand sorted and barrel fermented the grapes in new and old wood. After a quick fermentation process we transfered it to a large second fill barrel to go through malolactic fermentation, where it will lie for about 18-20 months. Upon initial tastings of the young pinot, we are very happy with the progress our baby is making. We are aiming to produce 500 bottles of a classic style pinot noir, made with food pairing in mind. Release date and name to be anounced at a later stage, watch this space. Posted in Uncategorized | No Comments » Sand at The Plettenberg Launches New Tasting Menu
