The Mont Rochelle Sauvignon Blanc is made up from 2 very distinctive vineyards, one situated in Franschhoek and the other in a cooler climate, Durbanville area. Freshness and layered fruit complexity are the hallmarks of our Sauvignon blanc.

about the harvest: Harvested in the cool of the morning, the grapes were carefully selected in the vineyards before a gentle crushing, cold soaking and pressing.

in the cellar : The juice was allowed to settle for two days. This was followed by racking and then fermentation at various temperatures. Each block of grapes was handled separately. The wines were aged on the lees for 6 months for integration and complexity development. After this period the different components were carefully blended and bottled
