15 barrels Jessica Saurwein
Place of the Gods Farm, Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, Overberg, Western Cape, South Africa
Om symbolises the concept of universal creation. This word is also synonymous with peace. The vineyard is situated in the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge region (Heaven and Earth), a beautiful and peaceful place close to my heart. May this wine carry forward the peace that its place of creation inspires.
This dryland vineyard is situated just 12 km from the sea and lies at 300 m above sea level, in what can be described as perfect Pinot Noir terroir! The soils are granite origin with a significant portion of clay in the subsoil. The clones are 115 and 667, planted in 2006.
