Savanha Sun Sauvignon Blanc 2009

A medium bodied wine with tropical fruit aromas comes to the nose with subtle hints of green pepper and grassiness. On the palate a fresh crisp wine, with flavours of green and yellow appels. A well balanced structured wine with a lingering aftertaste.

Serve with seafood dishes, salads and cheese.
