Production Details Soaked cold on skins for up to 24 hours. Juice with World-class Muscats are produced on our clayey, limestone-rich soils which bring a whole spectrum of fabulous flavours and heady aromas to these wines. Spiciness, opulent orange peel, peach and rose petal flavours add to the complexity and elegance of the Zandvliet Muscat. Drawn and skins lightly pressed. Directly inoculated in stainless tanks. Fermentation is stopped when required alcohol level of 8 is achieved. Unoaked and bottled directly after fermentation.
