Sauvignon Blanc Blend
In this wine, we wanted to create a blend of two harsh, yet unique terroir’s. We chose to venture outside the Swartland, 260km north-west, near the Olfantsriver wine region, where the terroir is similar to the Swartland, but situated a few 100m’s away from the rolling West Coast waves for our Sauvignon Blanc. The Nouvelle and Colombard grapes were sourced from the heart of the Swartland, near Malmesbury for its concentrate sweet fruit and lower acids. The goal was to create a super quaffer litchi, gooseberry nose, with a rich, zesty mouth, but toned down acid, to create a balanced, yet refreshing pallet.
