Kaapzicht Sauvignon Blanc 2009

Pale straw with a tinge of green; mouth watering crisp green apple and cape gooseberry flavours abound with some fig leave and cut grass aromas bringing the taste of sunshine to the glass; lovely mouth feel with gently balanced acidity to create a fresh, yet rounded finish.
Elsie Pels - Cape Wine Master

A delicious match with crunchy summer salads or seafood dishes.
