Winemaking Notes
The 2020 vintage began with mild winter conditions followed by an early and ideal spring. The growing season was hot, dry, and long resulting in fruit that came in clean and ripe. The perfect season for our Winemaker, René Van Ede's inaugural vintage! The Sauvignon Blanc grapes were harvested September 22nd when they reached optimal ripeness, with a portion (19%) being set aside to dry for 37 days in the Appassimento method. The wine was fermented and aged in stainless steel.

Food Paring
This wine pairs excellently with citrus marinated and grilled shrimp, Caesar salad topped with chicken, or your favourite dish from your local Asian cuisine restaurant such as sushi or Thai. The Sauvignon Blanc is very enjoyable on its own served on the deck or patio.
