TASTING NOTES:
As has become the Mulderbosch house style, almost a third of the blend was matured on lees in neutral 500L barrels, contributing richness and texture to the wine.
Nose: Notes of fresh guava and gooseberries at first glance, with blackcurrant, elderflower and vanilla pods lingering in the background. After the first sip, more herbaceous fynbos aromas start to lead you into the complexity of this wine.
Palate: A very clean, saline, sea spray freshness overwhelms and melts away into a seductively full and rich abundance of fruit at the core of this wine. Perfectly balanced with freshness and tang, but with elegance and volume to drive the point home that Stellenbosch can produce world class Sauvignon blanc from its vast collection of unique sites.
