Producentens noter (engelsk): Tech sheet: Wild Winds Sauvignon Blanc 2024 Tropical notes with a mineral undertone. TASTE A natural and pure expression of Sauvignon Blanc with guava and honeydew melon notes on the nose. The palate is flinty with an excellent acidity and stylish long-lasting finish. VINEYARDS Sourced from the Schaapenberg and lower Schaapenberg vineyards which are the highest on the farm. They are southerly-facing and overlook False Bay, leading to natural stress conditions due to strong winds. These also keep the vineyards cool and impart a sense of salinity to these wines. WINEMAKING All grapes are hand-picked over an extended period, given the site of the vineyards. They are destemmed in the cellar and undergo a combination of inert and oxidative pressing. The juice is then settled and taken to stainless steel tanks for fermentation using a variety of yeasts to draw out various characteristics. Regular lees stirring balances the natural high acidity and low PHs. Then we blend, filter and bottle. AGING POTENTIAL Drinking beautifully now but aged Sauvignon Blanc is a treat.
