Cape Winemakers Guild

De Grendel Amandelboord Sauvignon blanc 2010

The grapes were hand-picked from a selected area in a vineyard block. After being destalked, the fruit received 18 hours skin contact followed by a 3 day settling period. The wine was blended with a dash of Semillon, underwent cold fermentation and a stirring of lees, after which it was stabilized and bottled. Tasting note: Cool growing conditions ensure asparagus and gooseberry flavours on the nose. The balance of crisp acidity and layers of fruit enhances complexity on the palate.
