Mulderbosch Sauvignon Blanc 2017

Firm acidity and amazing length of flavour ensure thatWith a clear, green-hued appearance, the Mulderbosch 2017 Sauvignon Blanc immediately conveys a sense offreshness and vibrancy. Powerful aromas of green figs and citrus rind are reignedin by a light chalky, herbal note providing intrigue. this is one of the finest Sauvignons produced by Mulderbosch in many years.

The palate abounds with intense Sauvignon Blanc flavours of ripe summer fruits including passion fruit and limes yet there is a firm textural edge that maintains the wine’s poise and ensures there is length to the finish. Simply paired with fresh oysters or flame grilled white fish this Sauvignon Blanc will refresh and delight with each sip.

in the vineyard : Thanks to our ongoing relationship with our dedicated team of grape growers, we were again able to source amazing quality Sauvignon Blanc grapes in addition to our very own Mulderbosch ‘home block’. 2017 turned out to be a fantastic year for Sauvignon Blanc. The most significant quality factors being the consistent wind throughout the growing season, and cooler than average temperatures, with a noticeable absence of any real heat waves.

in the cellar : Vinification was a simple affair of pressing, settling and fermenting the juice in their stainless steel tanks, or in ‘neutral’ French oak barrels of 500L which accounts for 12% of the 2017 blend.
