WINE DESCRIPTION

Fairvalley Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshing and crisp white wine produced by Fairvalley Wines in the Western Cape region of South Africa. The grapes are sourced from the estate's own vineyards, which are situated in the foothills of the Helderberg Mountains. The vineyards benefit from the cool ocean breezes and the unique terroir of the region, resulting in a wine with vibrant citrus and tropical fruit flavors. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and cool fermentation to preserve the wine's natural acidity and freshness. The wine is a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light dishes, and is a great choice for those who enjoy a lively and zesty style of Sauvignon Blanc.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Fairvalley Sauvignon Blanc has a bright and refreshing aroma of passion fruit, green apple, and hints of citrus.The palate is light and crisp with delightful flavors of gooseberry, melon, and a touch of lime. The finish is crisp and clean, with a lingering hint of minerality. A wonderfully balanced white wine that is sure to please.

Region: Western Cape

The Western Cape is a province of South Africa located in the south-western corner of the country. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Eastern Cape to the east, and the Northern Cape to the north. The Western Cape is home to some of the world's most renowned wine regions, making it a paradise for wine lovers. The Western Cape has a long and rich history of winemaking. The first vines were planted in the region in 1655 by Dutch settlers, and the first commercial winery was established in 1685. Since then, the region has become one of the most important wine-producing regions in South Africa.
