Strydom Family Wines The Game Change Cabernet Franc – Merlot 2015
This is a two barrel selection from two spectacular vineyards on the Helderberg. The varieties were harvested separately at the end of February, with cellar practices of four pump-overs and punch-downs during the day with aeration during the first part of fermentation. After 14-17 days total skin maceration, the grapes were pressed and malolactic fermentation was in barrels. The blend was made up six months before bottling and matured as a blend until bottling.
