Perched at 220 meters elevation on a plateau in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, this vineyard exhibits the distinctive influence of Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley porphyritic granite soil composition.
The 2022 Newton Johnson Falkirk Mourvedre vineyard's proximity to the Atlantic Ocean is a mere 4-8 kilometers, which establishes a cool, temperate viticultural climate. The adjacent mountain formations serve as natural corridors, funneling maritime air currents into the valley throughout the crucial summer maturation period.
The wine shows a ripe core of fruit and some soft but not insignificant tannin. Open for a few hours to enjoy this wine at its best.
