Product information "Benguela Cove Sauvignon Blanc 2019"
The Benguela Cove Sauvignon Blanc exudes an inviting bouquet of green figs, green peppers and sweet tropical fruit as well as fine hints of flint and juicy lemon drops. On the palate, this attractive and racy Sauvignon Blanc from the cool Walker Bay presents itself with intense tropical nuances of pineapple and lemongrass as well as a pleasantly balanced acidity. A white wine of wonderful grace and finesse!

The grapes for this racy Sauvignon Blanc were harvested at optimal maturity and completely destemmed on arrival at the winery. This was followed by a few hours of contact on the skin before the fermentation process began in stainless steel tanks as well as in barrels (25% new wood). Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed, the wine spent 8 months on the lees to obtain a nice complexity in the wine.
