Rhebokskloof Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Packed with flavour, lemon drops, guava, fig-rich salad, this is a satisfying and ripe style Sauvignon, with good palate weight, a rounded texture. A fresh finish gives definition, length and food compatibility.

Tasty enough to drink on its own, but perfect with seafood.
