Rhebokskloof Rhebok Sauvignon Blanc 2007

This wine balances a fresh, crisp acidity with a complex bouquet of aromas. This includes greenpepper, asparagus and ripe figs, with lots of tropical fruit undertones. This wine fills the palate with flavour and has a lingering aftertaste.

A perfect partner for any seafood dish.
