Reserve Sauvignon Blanc //​ Cape Point

The Reserve is selected from three parcels on the Noordhoek farm. The nose shows delicate floral elements, grapefruit, stone fruit and limes along with subtle wood spice. This follows to a richly textured palate held together by a mineral backbone. The wine shows great structure and will develop incredibly well over the next 5–10 years.

Vineyard

Grapes for this wine are hand-picked from three sea-facing parcels in the mid levels of the farm where a combination of the fresh breezes and decomposed granite soils result in a wine that has a distinct mineral edge. 

Grapes

Sauvignon Blanc (90%)
​Semillon (10%)

Winemaking

The grapes were hand picked between 22°B and 23°B in the early hours of the morning and whole bunch pressed. The juice is allowed to settle naturally over 12 hours. After fermentation the wine is left on the fermentation lees for 15 months in old French oak.
