Tinta Barocca is a grape that carries the soil into the bottle and it is a great communicator of terroir. The grape has a longstanding relationship with the Swartland and the spicy, herbal aromatics and dark purple plum-like fruit form a very tight and compressed core.

Swartland – Malmesbury
This vineyard is located next to the old railway line (treinspoor) and named accordingly. The very fragile, thin skin of Tinta Barocca is prone to sunburn. The old bush vines have formed a great framework to keep the bunches sheltered from the intense Swartland sun. Tinta Barocca has the textural nature of the Nebbiolo grape and the aromatic orientation of Syrah - a great combination.
Grapes are fermented using 50% whole clusters. The fermentation is left for 25 – 30 days before being pressed. Only bucket-overs are used in the fermentation. It is very easy to over-extract Tinta Barocca since the grapes hold an abundance of tannins.
Tinta Barocca is a grape that carries the soil into the bottle, it is a great communicator of terroir. The grape has had a longstanding relationship with the Swartland and the spicy herbal aromatics and dark purple plum like fruit carries over into a very tight and compressed core of the wine. Historically we have referenced that Tinta Barocca might be the most significant red variety of the historical plantings to transport the terroir and typicity of a site to bottle.
Composition: Tinta Barrocca / Tinta Das Baroccas (South African synonym)
