Holden Manz Big G 2019

The twenty-two hectare Holden Manz Wine Estate is situated between the Franschhoek River and Stony Brook at 300m above sea level. This boutique wine estate has been lovingly restored and developed by Gerard Holden and Migo Manz. An exclusive grower of red grapes, the estate only cultivates its top sixteen hectares under vineyards, notably Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Merlot. Long, cold and wet winters allow the vines to rest well, while hot dry summers and a gentle autumn allows for slow ripening. Featuring a rich and diverse terroir influenced by its unique natural surroundings, with three different soil types and a marked seasonal climate, the estate’s vineyards are perfectly suited to the production of ultra-premium wines made for the discerning wine connoisseur.

The individual varieties were handpicked and sorted allowing only the best berries to be used for this wine. Selected blocks in the vineyard are allocated to be used in making the Big G.
