Kaapzicht Combination 2013 - Discontinued

Light, fruity blend from Sauvignon and Chenin Blanc. Sauvignon driven aromatics of green fruit,elderflower and granadilla, with herbatious, nettle notes adding interest. The palate is broadened by some richness from the Chenin, balanced by brisk acidity, with a dry and refreshing finish.

Wonderful companion to Sushi, or tempura fried shellfish.
