Tasting notes
A classic expression of Sauvignon Blanc specific to the strongly maritime climate and soils of South Africa. It shows a refined bouquet of lime and orange with delicate melon, fig and peach fruit notes. Aromatic, refreshing and perfectly balanced. Ideal as an aperitif or with salads and light fare. 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Appellation
South Africa's wine regions are influenced by two powerful oceans that meet at the southern tip of Africa: the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean. The combination of beneficial maritime influences, such as constant coastal fog and cooling sea breezes, with a moderate Mediterranean climate, distinct and varied topography, and diverse soils, provides the ideal conditions to create wines of unique character and complexity.
Terroir
This area of South Africa consists of three predominant soil types:
Sandstone: Sandy with poor water and nutrient retention properties.
Granite: Red to yellow in color, acidic, found on mountain foothills and hill ranges, with good physical and water retention properties.
Shale: Highly structured, on partially decomposed parent rock, with good nutrient reserves and water retention properties.
