Diemersdal Sauvignon Blanc Reserve 2022

This is a full flavoured, complex Sauvignon Blanc. The wine has good depth on the nose with aromas of citrus and guava, with a touch of sweetness. On the palate excellent natural acidity creates balance, a fine structure and a pleasant mouth-filling texture with a clean finish.

Enjoy with full flavoured seafood dishes and creamy soup or blackened, spicy pan-fried fish.
