Tasting notes

Color: Pale straw with touches of green. Aroma: Classic Sauvignon characters of gooseberry, passionfruit and a touch of African sweetgrass. Palate: Unfolds with flavours of passionfruit, gooseberry and subtle herbaceousness. The wine is mouthfilling with good texture and finishes well with crisp acidity and great length.

Rating

Fragrant and complex, with a refreshing burst of lime, guava, grapefruit and grass flavors. Wet stone, passion fruit and oyster shell accents add interest, with bright acidity highlighting the vivid finish. Another outstanding Sauvignon from a perennial success.
