Nitida Aureus 2010
Sauvignon Blanc 65%, Semillon 35% After careful selection of our finest, most expressive Sauvignon Blanc and the best new barrel of Semillon, this wine was blended together. Thereafter the wine was placed back into seasoned barrels for a further 9 months to allow for the full integration of the 2 components and to build the mouth-feel of the wine. It was then gently racked from the barrel and bottled after careful filtering. Tasting note: Intensely alluring with fascinating balance and depth. Experience hints of pawpaw, dripping renosterveld honey with a side serving of creme brulee. Hankers for traditional white asparagus with a herb nutti-naise or T-bone with rhubarb infused reduction. Drink in 2011 and 2012.
