July 1, 2004 - Paarl Vintners Red Wine Tasting 2002 (Windmeul Cellars): (Tasted Blind): Peculiar nose with volatile elements. It is light to medium weight with hints of coffee that emerge on the finish. There is a definite torrefaction note, which adds complexity to the wine. The finish is quite long,
Fruit is sourced from a vineyard situated next to Glen Carlou. Trellised vines with irrigation and is picked between 25 and 26. Cold maceration of 2 to 3 days at a temperature between 8 to 10°C prior to ferment. Fermented dry using a Bordeaux red yeast and post ferment, undergoes skin maceration for one week. Once pressed, it goes into 70% new oak and is then racked three weeks later after its malolactic has happened in barrels. The pH is 3.68 and it ages 18 months in barrels.
