Monument is the new name from Chris Alheit's La Colline Semillon, a necessary change since another winegrower had trademarked the name. Now named for the Huguenot monument in Franschhoek. The wine is sourced from the upper slopes of a farm called La Colline in Robertsvlei Road. The vines from the lower slope are used in Cartology. The wine is fermented and aged in 7 year old barrels and kept on its primary lees for 18 months, bottled without fining or filtration. The wine itself is a pure, singular expression of Semillon. A variety which has centuries of heritage in the Cape. There are very few places in the world where one can find Semillon
