Leopards Leap Sauvignon Blanc 2021

A fresh, crisp, medium-bodied wine made in a New World style. Beautiful flavour like ripe passion-fruit and granadilla bursts out of the glass. A fun whiff of peachiness also compliments the other fruity aromas. Delicious pineapple and granadilla flavours together with Granny Smith apples impart a zesty and lengthy finish on the palate.

This refreshing wine with its herbaceous notes will pair well with fresh salads containing asparagus, pea-shoots and basil. Simple, seasoned ingredients such as oysters and prawns will be complemented by this wine.

in the vineyard : The grapes originate from Robertson, Stellenbosch and Durbanville.

about the harvest: The Robertson grapes were picked slightly earlier at around 21˚C to ensure higher natural acidity. The riper Stellenbosch grapes at 23,5 degrees Balling gives the nose fresh topical flavours and the cool climate Durbanville grapes at 21.5 gives flavours of gooseberry and fresh cut grass

in the cellar : Fermentation took place between 11-13˚C, with extended lees contact to ensure a well-balanced mouthfeel that supports all the flavour on the palate.
