Mulderbosch
From our winemaker Adam Mason, “The 2017 is certainly one of the finest quality Sauvignons I have seen coming out of the cellar since I joined Mulderbosch. I find this vintage to be quite strong in the passionfruit and grapefruit spectrum, with great aromatic and flavour intensity. The palate has vibrant acidity, good concentration of flavour and length, making it an all-round winner in my book.”
The release of the 2017 is on the back of the 2016 vintage which scored a very respectable 90 / 100 in Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate reviewed by Neal Martin – review released on the 28th of April 2017:
“The 2016 Sauvignon Blanc contains around 12% barrel fermented fruit this year. It has a pleasant pungency on the nose: gooseberry and fresh asparagus, just a hint of nettle following through. The palate is well balanced with fresh pear and gooseberry on the entry, just a slight spiciness towards the finish, but the acidity keeps this fresh and lively, a textural Sauvignon to enjoy over the next 2-3 years.” - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate (90 Points)
The 2017 vintage will carry a commemorative “Celebrating 25 Vintages” sticker on each bottle, be part of history and go and find some!
