Paul Cluver Sauvignon Blanc 2011
tasting notes
The colour is clear and bright, with a hint of green. The nose is clean and fresh with expressive granadilla and capsicum characteristics. Grapefruit and citrus flavours dominate on the palate which has a lovely creamy texture - the result of extended lees contact. Vibrant and zesty, the wine is enhanced by a minerality, reminiscent of gunflint or river pebbles, typical of the Elgin terroir.

blend information
92% Sauvignon Blanc, 8% Semilon

food suggestions
The ideal wine aperitif but best enjoyed with food. Refreshing summer time wine, it pairs well with salads and lighter meats. Richer seafood and cheese platters make it work through autumn and winter.
