Tasting Notes
This vibrant Sauvignon blanc bursts with notes of lime and green guava on the nose with additional hints of blackcurrant leaf and flint. The palate shows a lovely brightness with distinct notes of fresh lime and lemon pith ending with some leesy complexity to balance out the acidity.
Ageing Potential
An elegant wine, with great acidity and a nice round finish, that is enjoyable now, but can also be drunk over the next 5 years.
In The Cellar
The grapes were de-stemmed before being pressed. The remainder of the grapes we picked a bit later and decided not to de-stem them, but to do whole bunch presses instead. The must was allowed to cold settle overnight in stainless steel tanks (without any pectolytic enzyme additions). The juice was then racked into well-seasoned French barrels where natural fermentation took place. The wine was aged for eight months on the gross lees in barrel. A bit of sulphur was added prior to bottling only.
Not for sale to persons under the age of 18. Enjoy Responsibly.
