The 2021 and fifth vintage of this unique co fermented wine is only possible due to the rare occurrence of Merlot and Syrah ripening at the same time on the Holden Manz farm in Franschhoek. The individual varietals were hand picked on 11 April 2021 and then hand sorted allowing only the most optimally ripe berries to be used for this wine. Three brand new 225 litre French oak
