Constantia Glen Sauvignon Blanc

This wine is bright with a light straw-like appearance highlighted by a light green hue. Initial aromas of lemongrass and lime lead to bolder aromas of gooseberry, white peach and tropical fruit. The nose exudes elegance with a final bouquet of blackcurrant, citrus, and elderflower, as you prepare to take your first sip. The concentrated aromatics carry effortlessly to the palate, where they integrate with a vibrant acidity and textured mouthfeel. The palate is fresh, refined, and elegant with excellent fruit concentration and length. The extended lees contact and small splash of 2% Sémillon give this wine an extra dimension of body and richness to counter the fresh acidity. Made in a classic unwooded style, this Sauvignon Blanc is a pleasure to enjoy in its youth, but it will benefit from 5 to 8 years of ageing under ideal cellaring conditions.
