Humbly hobbling along while counting her blessings
She once wandered onto our yard, cool, calm, and confident and made herself at home. Independently comfortable. Where she came from no one knows. Her adventures didn’t start here, it is here where it continues…
A fuller style Sauvignon blanc that ferments and ages in oak for 10-12 months
depending on the vintage. We use old (75%) and new (25%) French oak
pigeons (500L). Certain leaner vintages might contain a smidgeon of Sémillon
to broaden the texture and palate. The earlier vintages (2012-2017) are more
in a linear style and will start to showcase some tertiary flavours, where the
younger vintages (2018-2021) will have elegant aromas of exotic fruit
(starfruit, dragon fruit), undertones of tropical aromas (passionfruit and ripe
pineapple) and yellow fruit (peaches). On the palate we strive to create a fine
balance between elegant and a well-rounded wine, supported by crisp
freshness, good length and minerality at the end. These wines will age for 7
years and beyond, provided stored under optimum conditions.
