Pecan Stream Sauvignon Blanc 2018

A Sauvignon blanc representing the more tropical style. Shaped around fresh fruit aromas such as granadilla (Elgin), pear and apple (Stellenbosch) with hints of gooseberry (Paarl). The palate expresses great purity in fruit, and well balanced with a softer acidity compared to a more typical Sauvignon blanc.

A lovely fruit driven and refreshing wine to be accompanied alongside any summer dish.

about the harvest: 3 rd year of extreme drought, this very noticeable in the natural vegetation and low dam levels. Low winter rains, followed by near perfect growing conditions, moderate temperatures and lack of heat waves during harvest. Vineyards remained very healthy and produced lovely bunches, smaller than usual giving concentration. Wines are extremely classical in style, with tight tannin structures and lovely acidities. Reds are going to be great talking points in the future.

Production: 17 000 cases
