Groot Constantia Sauvignon Blanc, 2023

Fresh & Very Well Balanced Sauvignon Blanc From South Africa

This wine features a complex nose with gooseberries, white peach and kiwi fruit aromas balanced by hints of fresh cut grass and litchi. The gooseberry and white peach flavours gives richness to the palate, balanced by a crisp, fresh acidity . Very well balanced, with an elegant body and a very long citric finish.

• Blend of 90% Sauvignon blanc, 10% Semillon

Cellaring:Drink now while fresh

Food Pairing: Oysters with Aioli or Ravioli with Green Pea Pesto makes for good pairing with this wine.

BEHIND THE WINE

Grapes are hand picked early in the morning to retain freshness and fruit flavours. They are crushed and destemmed into the press giving the juice some skin contact before being separated. Only the free run juice is used. The juice is settled and cold fermented (12 – 140C) in stainless steel tanks to enhance the varietal characters. After fermentation, the wine is left on the lees for six months before being racked, fined and stabilised in preparation for bottling.
