A delightful South African Bordeaux Blanc blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, featuring melon, stone fruit, and a hint of spice.
Hand harvested grapes were destemmed, then fermented and aged in large French oak barrels (32% new) for 9 months on the lees with regular bâtonnage
Here we have a South African version of a Bordeaux Blanc - Sauvignon Blanc blended with Semillon - and this one delivers the goods. Love the melon and stone fruit and that touch of spice. Oh so nice!
Delicately toasty notes of freshly dried straw and apple slices alongside tones of white melon and lime zest. The palate reflects a similar fruit profile to what the nose offers, though it’s all framed by ample acidity and a lightly pithy texture. It’s clean and lightly spicy through the close, showing touches of yellow flower and beeswax along with the yellow-fruit core. Editors' Choice
