“Cries out for some oysters. Very fine.” - Vinous

This great value Cape white delivers oodles of crisp and vibrant Sauvignon fruit. Intense aromas of lime zest, passion fruit and gooseberry with layers of blackcurrant leaf, crushed seashells and floral fynbos greet the nose, while on the palate razor-edged flavours of lime, lemon and grapefruit with a merciful squeeze of nectarine and passion fruit that add ripeness and succulence with a steely minerality and a pleasing saline note (from the exposure to the cool Atlantic Ocean) on the finish. Perfect for spring and summer drinking. 13% alc. Drink now – 2026.

Press reviews:

Vinous: “The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc Noordhoek comes from estate fruit matured in stainless steel, aged on the lees for ten months. There’s green apples, citrus peel and kiwi fruit on the nose, and just a little pyrazines here. The palate certainly has more vigour and tension than the regular Sauvignon Blanc. It’s taut and crisp, very malic, with quite a penetrating finish that cries out for some oysters. Very fine.” 89 points

JancisRobinson.com: “More fruit, body and colour than their entry-level Sauvignon. Varietally correct with plenty of oomph. (TC). Drink now-2032.” 16 points
