WINE DESCRIPTION

MAN Sauvignon Blanc (Warrelwind) is a refreshing and vibrant white wine produced by MAN Family Wines in South Africa's Coastal Region. The grapes are sourced from vineyards with a mix of soils, including decomposed granite and clay, which contribute to the wine's complexity and depth. The winemaking process involves a combination of stainless steel and concrete egg fermentation, resulting in a wine with a crisp acidity and a subtle creaminess. The wine is characterized by its intense aromas of tropical fruit, gooseberry, and green pepper, with a palate that is lively and zesty.

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.
