The Goose' Wines The
Upper Langkloof Appellation is arguably the coldest wine
growing region in South Africa. These extreme climatic conditions ensure complexity
of fruit and unique grapes that are handcrafted into world class
wines. After hand harvesting the grapes are transported to coolrooms,
where the temperature is maintained at 4 degrees Celsius for 12 hour to cool the grapes.
Upon arrival at the cellar the cold grapes are sorted before being crushed and
pumped into open cement troughs. There the juice is allowed to ferment on the skin
cap for eight to fourteen days, extracting the vital character and
colour from the skins into the wine as it develops. Malolactic fermentation completed
in imported French barrels.

'The Goose' is styled into classic and elegantly structured wine by ageing it in these
barrels for a further eighteen to twentyfour month. 'The Goose' Expression 2005 is a
50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Shiraz blend. The prominent Shiraz ensures herbaceous tones and white pepper flavours which fuse with the soft, blackberry undertones of the Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a truly a newworld blend, that achieves the much sought after, traditional oldworld balance and elegance.
