If you're a fan of great Sauvignon - from New Zealand or the Loire - you'll be delighted by this latest release from a former Cape Young Winemaker of the Year. It's tingling with vibrant citrus and fresh-cut grass flavours.
Sauvignon Blanc is one of South Africa's most talked about wine styles and here you have the top cuvée of the multi award-winning Bergsig Estate in Worcester. On the opposite side of the de Toitskloof mountains from Paarl and Stellenbosch, it's cooler and drier and the climate produces a classic aromatic style.
Sixth generation winemaker De Wet Lategan describes the 2007 as "Pale gold with mouthwatering aromas of lime, white flowers and fresh-cut grass. Sauvignon Blanc at its most expressive - with an abundance of ripe citrus fruit". Enjoy at its youthful best with vegetarian dishes, seafood salads, lemon chicken or creamy pasta.
