Description

Nederburg The Winemasters Sauvignon Blanc

The Winemasters ensemble, comprising a top-quality range of varietal offerings, is named to honour the Paarl winery’s long-established tradition of winemaking excellence. These classically styled, food-friendly wines with abundant fruit flavours, elegance and finesse, treasure the integrity of the grapes in every step of the wine growing and winemaking journey. Every drop demonstrates an unwavering commitment to world-class vineyard and cellar skills.

The grapes were sourced from top-performing vineyards in the Darling, Stellenbosch, Ceres, Philadelphia and Elgin districts, all cool climate winegrowing areas with the benefit of slower ripening of the grapes for greater flavour intensity. The vines are grown in granite and sandstone soils, resulting in grapes with a zestier and higher
natural acidity, which adds to the freshness and longevity of the wine. Open vineyard canopies bring about greater sunlight penetration of the grape bunches, contributing to more balanced acidity, in turn making the wine deliciously palatable.

Tasting Note Nederburg The Winemasters Sauvignon Blanc

Always a winner of the popular vote, this is no exception. Don’t expect to find a grassy, herbaceous or flinty wine.
Tropical aromas make way for fig, pear and apple flavours in the mouth. Lovely harmony of those ripe fruity notes with the gentle acid tang of citrus – lemon and lime. Subtle, rather than tart and abrasive, the acidity lends trademark succulence and refreshment to a well-rounded mouthful.
