Brief Description

Tasting Notes

A refreshing, elegant blend with aromas of gooseberry and tropical fruit, layered with citrus and hints of spice. Beautifully balanced with full-flavoured passion fruit and citrus notes lifted by a zesty, mouthwatering finish.

About

The estate is located in the Cape Agulhas appellation of origin, at the latitude 34? 34´ south. Altitudes vary from vineyard block to block, with some blocks at 50 metres above sea level, while others are located around 100 metres’ elevation, with an unhindered exposure to the sea.

The grapes used in making this wine are Sauvignon Blanc 77%, Semillon 19%, and Viognier 4%.

The grapes were handled reductively, which reduces the amount of oxygen the fruit has exposure to and helps to preserve fresh, fruity and vibrant notes.

The grapes were gently pressed and the juice was then fermented at cool temperatures of between 13? C and 15? C, to preserve the varietal characteristics. The wine was left on the lees for six weeks, imparting texture before being racked.

The Semillon and Viognier components were matured in third fill oak barrels for four months, adding subtle complexity.

Ideal with...

Spicy foods such as Thai, with light starters, and shell fish.
