In keeping with the trend towards fruit driven wines this Sauvignon Blanc displays intense varietal character including passion fruit and a hint of green pepper. Although attractive now our Sauvignon Blanc can be kept for a further 2 to 3 years. It can be enjoyed alone or as an accompaniment to good seafood

The majority of the grapes are picked midseason by hand at optimum ripeness. A component was picked earlier to introduce freshness due to the warmer vintage. The fruit comes from 3 blocks including 40 % old bush vines. Thirty five percent of the wine was fermented in oak but removed immediately after fermentation. The blend remains "sur lie" for 2 months prior to stabilization and bottling.

Tasting Note

The wine has abundant fruit with a hint of wood spice on the nose, including pineapple, guava and citrus. On the palate it is rich with a hint of freshness. It is well balanced with a long finish
