Why you'll love it
A standout South African white blend of 75% Sauvignon Blanc and 25% Semillon, fermented in 20% new oak. Praised for its complexity and balance, it received 97 points from Tim Atkin MW.
Fewer than 6 left, but you can still mix any 6 bin end wines for the extra 10%.
Aromas of lemongrass, elderflower, and pink grapefruit, with hints of fennel and blackcurrant leaf. The palate is layered and textured, featuring peach, nectarine, and a touch of oak spice, culminating in a long, mineral finish.
Ideal with grilled seafood, creamy poultry dishes, or soft cheeses.
Best known in Loire Valley, Marlborough, Bordeaux
Zesty, aromatic and refreshing. Grapefruit, gooseberry, cut grass and passion fruit, with crisp acidity. Mineral and restrained in Sancerre and the Loire, punchy and tropical in Marlborough, and blended with Sémillon in Bordeaux.
Best known in Bordeaux, Hunter Valley
A rich white grape with a waxy texture. Lemon, honey and lanolin, gaining toasty complexity with age. It is key to sweet Sauternes and dry white Bordeaux, and in the Hunter Valley makes light, lemony whites that age remarkably well.
South Africa
South Africa's wine heartland, encompassing everything from the cool coastal valleys to the warmer inland sites. Extraordinarily diverse in climate and soil: a single appellation that contains multitudes — from delicate Elgin Pinot to muscular Swartland reds.
