South Africa
Sémillon
deep

The La Colline vineyard is home to an extraordinary winemaking legacy: this plot is planted with Sémillon gris vines, a variety that has disappeared from the rest of the world. This cuvée therefore showcases South African identity in all its splendor: great depth, density, and a texture typical of old Sémillon vines.
