Cape Atlantic Sauvignon Blanc 2009

Mostly younger wines were used to produce this elegant, crisp dry wine. It was made reductively and is alive with delicious tropical fruit flavours as well as hints of grass and fresh herbs.

Serve the wine chilled. This Sauvignon Blanc is an ideal partner to shellfish, poultry and vegetable dishes served with green herbs or salad leaves.
