Product information "Steenberg The Black Swan Sauvignon Blanc 2019"
Steenberg The Black Swan Sauvignon Blanc ensnares the nose with a seductive bouquet of blackcurrants, flint, fragrant elderberry blossoms and subtle hints of herbal fynbos. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of aromatic mandarin jam, fresh lemon zest, fresh summer melon, yellow apples and fresh fig leaves. The delicious play of acids is wonderfully rounded off and balanced by the full and smooth palate. The crème de la crème among South Africa's best Sauvignon Blancs!

The Black Swan Sauvignon Blanc is a first-class blend from two different vineyards of the winery and a selection of only the best fruit of the vintage. The grapes were completely destemmed, crushed and left on the skin for 18 hours at cool temperatures. The juice was then left to rest for two days before the cool and slow fermentation began. The cool, controlled temperature during the vinification process results in a fresh, yet incredibly full-bodied wine. After fermentation, the wine spent another 9 months on the lees before being bottled slightly stabilized.
