This wine has a light yellow colour with a green tinge. The Diemersfontein Sauvignon Blanc displays fresh acidity and a delightful spectrum of ripe tropical fruits like pineapple and passion fruit, ending with zingy lime, a textured mouthfeel and a lingering finish.  

ABOUT THE DIEMERSFONTEIN SAUVIGNON BLANC 2023

WINEMAKING	The Sauvignon Blanc grapes were harvested early in the morning. Grapes were destemmed, crushed and the juice was cold fermented in tanks to preserve the fruit flavours. After about 20 days of fermentation, the wine was racked of its gross lees. After 3 months the wine was prepared for bottling.
TASTING NOTES	This wine has a light yellow colour with a green tinge. The Diemersfontein Sauvignon Blanc displays fresh acidity and a delightful spectrum of ripe tropical fruits like pineapple and passion fruit, ending with zingy lime, a textured mouthfeel and a lingering finish.
FOOD PAIRING	A lean, crisp wine that’s extremely flexible when it comes to food. It’s not a great fan of butter or cream, but when served with goat’s cheese or dishes with leafy green herbs and vegetables it truly shines.
