Our Sauvignon Blanc shows a nose of concentrated fruit flavours of green fig, a touch of cut grass and gooseberry. The wine is buoyed by mouthwatering lime acidity and a crisp finish. The wine was bottled under Stelvin closure to ensure optimal freshness an no cork-taint!

ageing : Drink now or through to 2010.

in the vineyard : The Elgin fruit makes up nearly 50% of the 2008 wine and augers well for the 16Ha of Sauvignon Blanc we have coming on line from our Casey's Ridge vineyard in Elgin.

about the harvest: The 2008 Sauvignon Blanc is made from grapes sourced from cool climate vineyards in Sir Lowry's Pass, Durbanville and Elgin.

in the cellar : The juice was fermented with different yeast strains in stainless steel fermenters, followed by a short period on the lees. The result is a vivid, rich Sauvignon Blanc with an excellent nose and palate.
