Attractive medium-deep red color Nice spicy notes, cloves, nutmeg and cinnamon, initially with black currants and other dark berries. Fine, well-structured palate. Layers of dark berries and cherries under the spices, which persist in a long dry finish.

Vinification
A single vineyard wine from the beautiful Mont Fleur farm, which is located at the top of a beautiful valley above Stellenbosch, 393 meters high between the mountains of Stellenbosch and Helderberg. The property is owned by the Trafford family and is run by a small team of dedicated employees. An elevation of the family house, which forms the center of the vineyard, appears on the label - drawn by former architect David Trafford. The grapes were picked by hand, picked, destemmed and gently crushed. Fermentation took place spontaneously in open fermenters at a maximum of 30°C for 12 to 15 days with regular pumping over. The free-flowing juice and the juice from the first pressing were used and the assemblage took place after 9 months. In total, Elevation 393 matured in French oak barrels for 20 months.
