KShs4,650 incl. of VAT
Pale straw in colour with green reflections. The nose is fresh and expressive, offering aromas of gooseberry, lime, and sea salt. On the palate, itโs lively and structured, combining citrus zest and green apple with flinty mineral undertones. The finish is crisp, saline, and beautifully persistent is a hallmark of Agulhas terroir.
This lively Sauvignon Blanc is made for seafood such as oysters, prawns, and grilled calamari. It also complements sushi, soft goat cheese, and light vegetable dishes.
Description
This is one of South Africaโs most distinctive Sauvignon Blancs, shaped by the extreme maritime climate of the Agulhas Coast, where two oceans meet. The cooling sea breezes and slate-rich soils create a wine of extraordinary tension and clarity. Each sip balances vibrant fruit and oceanic minerality, expressing both place and precision. What makes it truly special is its authentic coastal character. A Sauvignon Blanc that mirrors the wild, windswept beauty of its home. Sustainably farmed and crafted by winemaker Dirk Human, itโs a testament to the regionโs growing reputation for world-class whites.
