The Sadie Family Columella shows intense dark aromas with a ripeness that is just outside the red fruit spectrum. Clearly defined are the aromas of fresh blueberries with plenty of lush volume and excellent structure on the palate, combined with excellent acidity and clear freshness. An outstanding creation which, according to winemaker Eben Sadie, dangles lightly on the palate, without its immense weight being perceived by the senses. An absolutely masterly wine!

The wine matured for 12 months in French oak barrels, 10% of which were new wood. At the end of the 12 months in barrels, the wine was transferred to large oval barrels (foudres) where it spent another year on the fine lees. After a total maturation period of 2 years, the wine was bottled unfiltered and unrefined.
