Stellenbosch Vineyards Heyden's White 2013

This unique blend of Sauvignon blanc, Viognier, Vedelho and Gewürtztraminer creates a fusion of flavours, which include fragrances of lemongrass and gooseberries with floral and citrus blossoms. The refined palate is creamy with a fresh and zesty acidity. Subtle oaking and extended yeast contact adds appealing savouriness and complexity to this wine.

Enjoy on its own, or with creamy chicken dishes, fresh fish dishes or light salads. Suitable for vegetarians but not for vegans.
