Taken from the Kwv website:
For the processing of raw material, it has some of the most technologically advanced cellars in the South African wine industry. One of the core capabilities in the winemaking process is blending. KWV has the competency to create high volume benchmark blends, such as Roodeberg, to maintain the necessary consistency and to be produced according to detailed specifications. Extensive maturation facilities enable KWV’s winemakers to age both red and white wines in small, French or American oak barrels to create a variety of styles and character.
