Product Information
South Africa is far earning itself a reputation for producing stunning Sauvignon Blanc full of intense citrussy flavours. Just the thing to enjoy with a smoked haddock kedgeree or a fresh goat's cheese tart and a green salad.
More about this product;
Known as the City of Oaks after the huge numbers planted by founder, Simon van der Sel, Stellenbosch fast became one of the main wine-growing regions in South Africa. Hot summers and cool wet winters provided the best soil conditions for growing top quality grapes destined for the wine bottle rather than the fruit bowl. Sauvignon Blanc is a relative newcomer to the Cape, but the country's winemakers have quickly learned how to get the best out of this variety, making it in a distinctly South African style: full of ripe grapefruit flavours. Have a glass with a baked cheese starter, a fresh salad or be decadent and enjoy with fish and chips.

The inspiration behind The Best wine collection comes from our wine experts, who are passionate about sourcing exceptional quality wines from the world's finest wine producers. Like this Sauvignon Blanc made in partnership with Trizanne Barnard, one of South Africa's growing number of progressive, dynamic winemakers.
