Beau Trône White

The grapes were handpicked at optional ripeness during the early hours of the morning. It was destemmed and given skin contact in the press to give the juice more tannin structure. Fermented was in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to increase the fruit flavour compounds in the wine. After fermentation wine was left on the lease for an extra couple of months with the occasional stir to suspend the lease into the wine. Wine is racked off lease unfiltered and I fined into bottles.

This wine is made from Stellenbosch bush vines found on the Devonvalley south facing slopes and Elgin grapes that keep its natural acidity. Soil are decomposed granite with patches of sandstone.

The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc shows a great complexity on the nose with hints of grapefruit, granadilla, black current leave and guava on the nose. On the palate the fresh acidity gives its backbone, with a very slight tannin structure that makes this wine a bit fuller. The wine may contain natural sediment and is not harmful or effects the wine flavor profile.
