Winemakers Comments
Vibrant medium ruby red color. Lovely lifted spice and wild fruit nose. Very expressive. Soft easy drinking palate with nice vibrancy and some youthful tension. Loads of flavors already dancing across the palate to a refreshing dusty dry finish. Fascinating to see how this wine will develop, but why wait?

Winery
De Trafford Winery is situated on the beautiful Mont Fleur farm set at the top of a dramatic valley above Stellenbosch, 380m up between the Stellenbosch and Helderberg mountains, right at the end of the Blaauwklip road, between Stellenbosch and Somerset West.
The history of wine growing on this mountain farm started with the purchase of the property in 1976 by the Trafford family as inaccessible grazing land. Many of the high altitude slopes were deemed suitable for high quality red grape varieties. Unfortunately, due to the absurd quota restrictions, planting a commercial vineyard had to wait 18 years. In 1983 a small vineyard was established to produce experimental wines – consumed by family and friends! These were our learning curve years (1984 – 1991), which included lots of help and advice from local winemakers and working experience in France, particularly in the Bordeaux area.
