Diemersdal The Globe Sauvignon Blanc 2023

The Sauvignon Blanc opens with vibrant citrus notes, complemented by ripe stone fruit, underscored by a backbone of minerality and a hint of sea salt. Aromas of fresh lily add a subtle sweetness to the bouquet. On the palate, it delivers a delicate yet intense profile, showcasing flavours of sweet orange peel and a lingering, savoury mineral-salt finish. A Sauvignon Blanc that is beautifully complex, offering layered dimensions of flavour that unfold with every sip.

Diemersdal The Globe Sauvignon Blanc is South Africa’s first wine to be fermented and matured in 220 litre Wine Globes, heralding a new era for Cape Sauvignon Blanc and wine in general. The Wine Globe has given this wine an unrivalled linear focus, a resounding clarity in the expression of Diemersdal’s cool-climate terroir.
in the vineyard : Gentle slopes exposed to the micro-climate of the Atlantic Ocean results in the vineyards being influenced by the cool air-flows and morning mists so typical of a maritime climate. In summer a firm south-easter wind fans the vines ensuring temperate and sunny ripening conditions. Along with dryland farming on soils of decomposed granite with a high clay content, the vines offer intensely flavoured fruit, resulting in wines of elegance, character and structure.
about the harvest: The grapes hand harvested at 23.3ºB
in the cellar : The grapes are crushed and de-stemmed. 10% whole berry fermentation. Lees stirred up once a month. Wine Globes were covered with black socks to minimise UV exposure. No temperature control, as the glass forms the equilibrium between the outside temperature and the wine. 

12 months maturation in 220l Wine Globes.
