Information about "Lomond Pincushion Sauvignon Blanc 2023"
The Lomond Pincushion Sauvignon Blanc radiates clarity and vitality with its vivid green hues in the glass. It offers an enchanting bouquet of apricot, peach, and white stone fruit, framed by bright citrus notes. On the palate, this wine reveals the hallmark minerality typical of the Cape Agulhas region, with delicate hints of oyster shell mingling with fruit-forward flavors of white stone fruit and lemongrass.
Set amidst the unique Fynbos flora, Lomond's vineyards thrive. This exceptional single vineyard wine is named after a rare, endemic species of the Agulhas area: Leucospermum patersonii, known as the Silver-Edge Pincushion.
The juice was cold-fermented at 13ºC - 15ºC to preserve the natural grape aromas. The wine then aged for eight months on the lees before filtration and bottling.
The grapes come from a registered single vineyard, carefully selected for its unique terroir characteristics; the soils are predominantly sandy clay loams.
