in the vineyard : After experimenting in the vineyard for a couple of years we are now
confident that we know the viticultural recipe to create a light range of
varietal wines with exceptional quality at a very modest alcohol level.
Three vineyards from three of our grower farms were identified to be
harvested early to create this Sauvignon Blanc. All three vineyards are
planted in alluvial soils, with two situated on the banks of the Breede
River and one on the banks of the Cogmanskloof River. We tend to
allow more vigorous growing conditions for the Sauvignon Blanc and
try to keep the canopy more dense in order to maintain the grassy
flavours, typical of Sauvignon Blanc
