Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc 2021/3*
£14.99
13.32% | 750ml
Made reductively in order to maximize the fruit personality of the vintage, shows more marked fruit aromatics than usual, while maintaining the typical Southern Right balance of Old World minerality and length with hints of New World palate coverage and body. This is a wine that favours origin expressive individuality, minerality and palate complexity ahead of pure, pungent varietal aroma. A significant percentage of fruit from clay-rich soil has added an intense mid-palate structural component and addition overall complexity to this wine.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Founded by Anthony Hamilton Russell in 1994 for specialising in a more refined style of cooler-climate, clay-grown Pinotage – with the aim of re-defining and energising the then less popular national grape. Another early-ripening grape, Sauvignon blanc, was chosen as the white wine partner, based on its proven affinity for the area. The property is named after the Southern Right Whales which frequent Walker Bay (at closest just over 2,000 meters from the property) and which indicate the strongly maritime growing conditions.
