Information about "Thorne & Daughters Snakes & Ladders Sauvignon Blanc 2025"
The grapes for the Thorne & Daughters Snakes & Ladders Sauvignon Blanc come from 30-year-old vines along the rugged West Coast. They undergo gentle processing—whole-bunch pressing, wild yeast fermentation, and months of maturation in used oak barrels.
This Sauvignon Blanc captivates with a multifaceted bouquet of black currants, crushed bay leaves, and Nori, artfully interwoven with tropical fruit nuances. On the palate, it combines a rich structure with notes of gooseberry and prickly pear, complemented by a refreshing saltiness.
The vineyards are situated in an extreme climate along the Atlantic coastline of the Cape, nestled between the Atlantic Coastal Plain and the Olifants River Valley, which shapes the wine’s character and terroir.
