This resulted in a slightly smaller crop. The resulting small berries meant great concentration, however careful handling in the cellar was needed to ensure a balanced wine. Grapes were otherwise healthy and disease-free. The seven varietals from which this wine is made came from trellised vineyards, grown in Malmesbury shale and situated some 270m to 340m above sea level and received no irrigation.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking Philosophy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Allesverloren, our winemaking philosophy is rooted in tradition, terroir, and time-honoured expertise.

Early cold unit accumulation followed by a warm spring ensured even budding, although wet conditions in September caused some unevenness. Despite strong winds during flowering and poor fruit set in exposed vines, the dry summer conditions allowed for concentrated fruit. The resulting wine shows vibrant berry character with fresh acidity, highlighting the vintage’s balance between structure and fruit freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking Philosophy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Fanie Malan Reserve 2014 is a testament to the art of crafting a signature port. The fully ripened grapes were handpicked at optimal ripeness, carefully selected, and cold macerated to extract the best possible colour and flavour. Fermentation was closely monitored, with constant hand punch-downs and pump-overs to ensure perfect extraction. The wine was then fortified and matured in French oak barrels for six years, resulting in a port that combines depth, complexity, and a silky smooth finish, offering a truly refined drinking experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVineyard Philosophy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Allesverloren, we believe resilience is the foundation of great wines.
