Louis Turtles All the Way Down 2009
100% Cabernet Sauvignon These grapes were grown in the Helderberg and picked when they reached a natural ripeness plateau. The wine underwent natural fermentation on the skins for one week and was then pressed into barrel and left to undergo malolactic fermentation. The wine spent a total of 24 months in barrel.
