Bright straw gold. Shy nose of lemongrass, ripe fig, and satsuma. Echoed on the medium full-bodied palate with a medium long finish and that classic South African “oiliness” (that’s a plus, folks!). Personally, I find SA Sauvignon to be much more food friendly than its NZ counterpart, and this is no exception. Greens, roots, and flowers (think capers) will pair well as will standard white wine fare.
