Product Notes

Hermanuspietersfontein's HPF Kat Met Die Houtbeen Sauvignon Blanc is a stunning South African white wine cultivated in the cool climate of Hermanus. Offering intoxicating notes of elderflower, passionfruit, and fresh citrus, this wine graces the palate with an invigorating acidity complimented by its elegant, mineral finish. It’s a complex wine, displaying the delicate nuances of the Sauvignon Blanc grape, which is masterfully enhanced through careful oak ageing. An ideal accompaniment to seafood dishes or rich, creamy cheeses, the Kat Met Die Houtbeen is a decadent embodiment of the terroir from which it originates.

Tasting Notes

A splash of Semillon to this wood matured Sauvignon blanc demystifies her myth. Her well-developed structure and textured complexity matches the taste that can be expected from a Wine of Origin Sondagskloof. Appearance - Bright, clear, live green straw. Aroma - Dried apricot, subtle oak and minerality. Palate - Rich and textured, layered structure, complex.
