Product Notes

Stellenrust Sauvignon Blanc is a stellar South African wine originating from the Stellenrust Estate in Stellenbosch. It boasts a brilliant clarity and a fresh, greenish hue. The nose is pronounced with delightful notes of ripe tropical fruits such as guava and passion fruit, blended with an undercurrent of citrus and subtle green peppers. On the palate, the wine is balanced and refreshing, exhibiting a zesty acidity matched with a pleasing mineral crispness. The finish is long and clean. This exquisite Sauvignon Blanc is perfect for serving at garden parties or with seafood dishes.

Tasting Notes

This Sauvignon Blanc has a crisp acidity with a bouquet of yellow summer fruit. At the core is a stoniness supporting pungent fruit alongside subtle herbaceous notes.
