Testalonga Bandits Kloof Daisy's Pond 2022

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Grenache Blanc from Testalonga's own property, Bandits Kloof. They started planting vineyards in 2018 here, with Grenache Blanc & Grenache. Decomposed Sandstone and Koue Bokkeveld Shale

Taste Profile: Hay, citrus, peach, earth and hard-to-describe nutty quality on the nose. Dense fruit, moderate acidity and a savoury finish – full of character

Winemaking Process: The grapes were whole bunch pressed directly into 2 x 400L old (10 year) French barrels. The wine took a long time (12 months) to complete full malo lactic fermentation, this we feel added another layer to the wine. the wine was left on its gross lees for 21 months, before being racked for the first time the day before bottling into tank. From there it went directly into bottle
