Cape Point Vineyards Stonehaven Sauvignon Blanc 2008

On the nose the wine shows an abundance of tropical fruit along with citrus, grapefruit and freshly cut grass. This all follows through to a crisp palate with a long limey finish. The wine can be enjoyed now, yet will develop beautifully over the next 2 – 3 years. Enjoy with good food and company.
