De Waal Sauvignon Blanc 2019

This wine is fruit-driven, approachable and smooth in style. This lovely Sauvignon Blanc shows delicious tropical flavours, such as gooseberries and litchi. The middle palate is full of flavour and it ends with a lingering freshness. This is the ideal wine for al fresco summer luncheons.

It is perfect to enjoy a glass on its own, or on the Terrace with friends. It is a great pairing with a delicious salmon salad, or fresh sushi!
