Miles Mossop Wines Maximilian 2011
This is an expression of the Cabernet Sauvignon block used as a basis for my Max blend growing on slate soils in the Bottelary area of Stellenbosch. The vineyards are unirrigated and produce low yielding fruit (2 to 4 tons/hectare), giving a pure expression of its environment. The grapes are handled with the utmost care in the cellar. Natural winemaking principles are followed with no additions besides sulphur to the grapes and the wine. The wine was matured for 22 months in barrels, of which 33% were new.
