Product information "Clos Malverne Auret 2018"
The undisputed flagship of the Clos Malverne winery - the Clos Malverne Auret! A unique and immensely full-bodied Cape Blend made from the Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinotage and Merlot varieties. A subtle spiciness caresses the palate, underscored by red berry fruit. Pleasantly dry tannins perfectly round off the taste experience. The finish is long lasting and smooth.

The grapes for the Clos Malverne Auret were hand-picked at optimal maturity and then destemmed, crushed and fermented on the skins in open fermentation tanks for 7 days. During the fermentation process the temperature was kept at a controlled 24-30° C. After fermentation was completed, the skins were pressed in the traditional basket press. The free-flowing juice and the juice obtained by pressing ended the spontaneous malolactic fermentation in the tank. The different wines were blended and then matured for 12-13 months in French barriques.
