WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Reyneke Reserve White 2021 is produced using grapes from selected vineyard parcels. After hand-harvesting and whole-bunch pressing, the juice undergoes natural settling. Fermentation is spontaneous, occurring in 80% first-fill 300L French oak barrels. The wine is subsequently aged on its lees in oak for 10 months, a process designed to build complexity and texture before bottling.
