Information about "Cape Point Vineyards Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2023"
The Cape Point Vineyards Reserve Sauvignon Blanc captivates the senses with its aromatic bouquet of floral spices, cardamom, and white pepper. Its generous fruit profile reveals notes of lemon, mandarin, and ripe nectarines, while the coastal landscape's essence unfolds with hints of seaweed and a fresh, salty ocean breeze, characteristic of Cape Point. Delicate nuances of fragrant spring and elderflower blossom, accompanied by subtle touches of gentle oak aging, add layers of complexity to this wine. On the palate, it offers richness, depth, and a well-structured body, enhanced by a 4% Semillon blend, culminating in a distinctly long-lasting and mineral finish.
The grapes were hand-harvested in the early morning, gently pressed whole bunch, and the resulting juice was vinified after a twelve-hour resting period in the barrel. After fermentation, the wine matured for 16 months in old French oak on fine lees, with regular stirring to enhance mouthfeel.
