Blend Information 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot, 3% Malbec About The Harvest All grapes were hand picked in small lug boxes. All grapes were hand picked. In The Cellar All grapes were hand picked in small lug boxes pre cooled to 5°and sorted twice before a pure yeast culture was inoculated. The juice was pumped over the skins 3-5 times per day for 5 days. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was drained of the primary lees and transferred to a resting tank. Malolactic fermentation and a brief settling period preceded the wine to a combination of 225 litre barrels of French oak (25% first fill the rest second third and fourth fill.) The wine spent between 12 - 14 months in barrel before bottling and labelling. Additional Information The Raka brand was named after Piet Dreyers fishing vessel. Piets first love has always been the sea. It is with this same passion that the Dreyer family now pursue the art of winemaking. With the rich blessing of earth and elements, the help of a dedicated workforce, the enthusiasm of winemaker Josef Dreyer and the advantages of a modern gravity flow cellar, Piet Dreyer produces his award-winning Raka wines. These wines have been selected by wine.co.za as a representation of what this great winemaker can do. Taste them all then come back for the ones that work for you.
