Ondine Sauvignon Blanc 2009

Colour: Light yellow with green undertones.
Aroma: Asparagus, ripe fig and gooseberry.
Flavour: Green pepper with undertones of fig, minerality, acidity and crispiness.
Finish: Balanced with a voluptuous aftertaste.

General: Sauvignon Blanc from the Darling appellation is very aromatic, due to part of the uniqueness and the location of the terroir.  We set out to produce a wine which offers more focus on the structure of the palate. Although challenging this wine offers a new dimension of length and concentration of the palate.
