History: Purchased by the Gabb family in 2009, Mount Rozier was founded at the turn of the 19th century by Annie Rozier, a flower merchant. She picked wildflowers in the Schapenberg hills surrounding her family's homestead and famously, she also produced natural remedies and medicines for the local community. In the 1920s, the Stellebosch-based estate formed part of Myrtle Grove, where the first ever commercial plantings of Pinotage were grown in 1941 by Professor Perold.
Regional information: The vineyards are located in the Western Cape wine region, on north face slopes. The soil is well drained deep sandy soil with river rocks. Drip irrigation is used and the wines are trained on and extended 7 Strand Perold trellis system. All vines are sustainably farmed.
Vinification: The grapes are sorted and destemmed before they are pressed. This short supply from vine to press ensures minimal degradation of the fruit aromas. The free run juice and press juices are kept separate from each other and treated according to their individual character. The pressed juice were cold fermented in small stainless-steel tanks with a specific yeast strain that enhance the fruit character. After fermentation, the wines were blended, stabilized and bottled.
