The Semillon Gris grapes for Tin Soldier are sourced from a single vineyard in the “Siebritskloof” (Siebret's Valley) on Swartland’s Paardeberg mountain. The vineyard was planted with cuttings of Semillon Gris taken from the old bush vine vineyard where the Semillon for the ‘Paper Kite’ comes from and is believed to be the only 100% Semillon Gris vineyard in South Africa.

The combination of this wine with the skin-fermented portion lifts the aromatic profile of the wine to achieve a wonderful interplay of fruity and savoury flavours. After fermentation, the wine went through spontaneous malolactic fermentation and aged in barrel on its lees. No sulphur additions were made until August following the vintage.
