Grand Vin de Stellenbosch Sauvignon Blanc 2021


TASTING NOTES

An expressive Sauvignon Blanc with a crystal-clear colour. This vibrant, modern Sauvignon Blanc has well defined gooseberry and grapefruit aromas with a crisp green apple finish. A well-balanced acidity tightly knits these fruit layers, expressing the lingering aromas of this unique terroir.

 

VINEYARDS

This wine took us on an adventurous sourcing and discovery of beautiful pockets in the Stellenbosch region. We fell in love with one specific vineyard with the most spectacular view. Regular monitoring of this vineyard and tasting the fruit development was amazing. Only the best section of the block was picked, where the viticulturists and I found the fruit profile best expressed. Ultimately in one block we wanted to capture various fruit components.

 

WINEMAKING

Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 13°C. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine was racked with thin lees. Occasional lees stirring enhanced fruit flavours. The result is a wine that delivers the best expression of a Sauvignon Blanc, the Stellenbosch region has to offer.
