Part of Vergelegen’s Heritage Range, this Sauvignon Blanc comes from the estate’s highest vineyards on the Schaapenberg, overlooking the wild Atlantic swells of False Bay. These exposed sites lend the wine its striking freshness and coastal character. Winemaking Hand-picked over an extended period, the grapes were destemmed and pressed using both inert and oxidative methods. Fermentation took place in stainless steel with a range of yeasts to enhance complexity, followed by regular lees stirring to balance the naturally high acidity. The wine was blended, lightly filtered and bottled to preserve its pure fruit profile. Tasting Notes A natural and expressive Sauvignon Blanc with bright guava and honeydew melon aromas. The palate is crisp and flinty with excellent acidity and a refined, lingering finish. Food Pairing Superb with oysters, fresh salads or goat’s cheese. Awards Tim Atkin MW: 92 pts
