Cape Atlantic Sauvignon Blanc 2012

An aromatic Sauvignon blanc expressing a combination of tropical fruit flavours over layers of freshly cut grass and white asparagus. A crisp wine with lingering fruit flavours and a mouthwatering zesty lime acidity.

This wine would welcome any occasion and will be a great companion to seafood dishes, poultry or any lunchtime get-togethers.
