ORIGIN

Jonkershoek Valley and Groenkloof – both sites comprise of decomposed granite and pockets of Malmesbury schale. The 2014 vintage was preceded by cold and wet winter conditions and a relatively warm and dry summer resulted in good and even budding. During the ripening season the days were warm with moderately cool evenings.

WINEMAKING

WINEMAKER NOTES

Deep dense earth red. The aromatics proclaim red and dark fruits. Notes of liquorice, black olives and cedar are noticeable. The palate is seamless, sophisticated, rounded and stylish. Combining the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness of Syrah, Webb Ellis exemplifies the judicious balance of fruit and oak. With 8 years of bottling maturation the tannins are rounded with a rich mouth feel. A multi-dimensional continuum.
