Bouchard Finlayson Walker Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2006

Name: Bouchard Finlayson Walker Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2006
Brand: Bouchard Finlayson
SKU: 14531

Sauvignon blanc can safely be described as the Capes happiest white wine variety. It is fresh, lively with tropical qualities which offer the greatest palate pleaser for locals and visitors alike. Local sales attest to its popularity. Taste is slightly restrained, austere but tropical with guava on the nose which leads one slowly into a long protracted, aristocratic finish. The promise of real strong flavours unwinding, and the pleasure of the 2004 and 2005 are to be repeated. Lots of body underpinned by the heavy clay terroir of the domain vineyard help repeat the unique character of the location from year to year.

More body than in previous vintages and its palate cleansing freshness lends itself to a range of fish and seafood dishes.

about the harvest: Vintage 2006 was characterised by less grapes which normally equates to greater wines! Evidence of this being a â€œbetterâ€ vintage shows in the impressive length and finish on this bottling. These domain grapes arrived in wonderful condition and their clean and singularly unblemished appearance presented a great starting point for the winemaker!
