Wine description | The wine has a particularly clear colour in comparison to other years, with just a hint of light straw. On the nose, apple is the most prominent fruit, followed by gooseberry and green pepper fragrance. The palet is very dry, but well rounded, with a lingering, fresh after-taste. |

The refreshing Sauvignon Blanc grape is perfectly at home in South Africa. The diverse growing regions make for wines that can be nice and grassy with plenty of grapefruit and green apple skins.
While the quality is high, the price is still low. South African Sauvignon Blanc offers you an excellent alternative to the considerably more expensive counterparts from New Zealand.
