Wild House Sauvignon Blanc

Western Cape, South Africa

13% ABV 

An impressive addition to the Wild House range, vinified at Wildeberg, predominantly from grapes grown in Elgin, a coastal region renowned for high quality, cool climate Sauvignon Blanc.

Tasting Notes

A vibrant cool climate style of Sauvignon with intense citrus and crushed nettle aromas. Ripe, concentrated fruit is offset by a grapefruit tang and leafy characters. Taut and mineral with a long, textural finish.

Food match

Simply cooked sea bass with a salsa verde, lemon roasted chicken or aromatic thai dishes.

Production 

Hand harvested grapes from Elgin, supplemented by small parcels from cooler sites in Paarl and Franschhoek, were gently pressed and the juice settled for 48 hours. Naturally fermented in stainless steel tanks, with no additions other than a small dose of sulphur, and kept on the gross lees for 5 months.
