    Aromatic & Fresh Sauvignon Blanc with a distinct, savoury saltiness!

    This Sauvignon opens with a highly aromatic bouquet of delicate elderflower, crisp gooseberries, and vibrant exotic fruits. On the palate, it is beautifully balanced and wonderfully juicy. A streak of lively acidity runs right through the center, giving the wine a striking, well-defined structure. What truly sets this selection apart is a distinct, savoury saltiness that brings an incredible focus to the palate and stretches the finish out for a wonderfully long, lingering close.

    • Very short maceration, temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel followed by ageing on the fine lees
    • Wine Enthusiast | 91/100 Pts
    • James Suckling | 91/100 Pts
    Cellaring: Perfect now!
    Food Pairing: Try pairing this Sauvignon with freshly shucked oysters, a platter of smoked salmon, or grilled prawns. It is also a fantastic match for pan-fried white fish served with a simple herb butter, or a fresh green salad topped with a soft, creamy goat cheese | 🌡️ Served slightly chilled, between 10 -12 °C
