What reviewers say
“I’m really rather into this, it’s Sauvignon blanc done very well. As with so many South African white wines if you give it some air it will show you its soul. Duncan Savage is working on 13.5% alcohol but it doesn’t dominate, it just adds a little weight. This wine walks the line between a nose that shows unripe passion fruit and guava and a palate that has some green lean, the huge salinity reins everything in and adds elegance. It’s a textural delight. Excellent value at £16.50.”
