Cederberg Ghost Corner Semillon 2013
Vinification: A reductive style. Cold crushed at 8 degrees C with skin contact for 8 hours. Only free run juice was used and then settled for 2 days at 10 degrees C. 50% fermentation took place in stainless steel and 50% was fermented in a first fill oak barrel for 4 months. Weekly battonage in both barrel and stainless steel. Tasting Notes: Maritime influences combined with grey slate and koffieklip soil types give rise to an aromatic Semillon showing elderberry flower and dusty dry fynbos on the nose. Careful oaking results in a full, lingering, creamy palate with a crisp finish. A wine showing phenomenal potential to cellar for another 3 to 6 years.
