Information about "Cape Point Vineyards Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2023"
The Cape Point Vineyards Reserve Sauvignon Blanc enchants with an exquisite aromatic profile that includes floral spices, cardamom, and white pepper. The fruit-forward palate reveals flavors of lemon, mandarin, and luscious nectarines, complemented by coastal hints of seaweed and a refreshing, salty breeze typical of Cape Point. Delicate notes of fragrant spring blooms and elderflower, with subtle nuances of refined oak aging, impart intriguing complexity. On the palate, it showcases rich depth and structure, enhanced by a 4% Semillon blend, leading to a distinctively prolonged and mineral finish.
The grapes were hand-harvested in the early morning, gently pressed whole bunch, and the resulting juice was vinified after a twelve-hour resting period in the barrel. After fermentation, the wine matured for 16 months in old French oak on fine lees, with regular stirring to enhance mouthfeel.
