Vineyard | The vineyards for Columella are found on Paardeberg, Kasteelberg, Piquetberg and near Malmesbury. An area with a poor terroir, little water and therefore irrigation is necessary. The good thing about this region is that there are many old vines to be found. The soil is rich in granite, slate and sandstone. |

Vinification | Everything is hand picked and then hand sorted. The grapes are destemmed piece by piece and fermentation takes place in large open barrels. This is followed by aging in barriques, 5% of which are new for 12 months. After this, the wine is transferred to large wooden casks for another 12 months of aging |
