A little bit about South African Sauvignon Blancs
The flavors of Sauvignon Blanc in South Africa can have a lot of similarities to New Zealand; they can be zesty, grapefruit-y and grassy. Sauvignon Blancs in the Cape do best with a cool climate to allow slow ripening, but also rich fertile soils, resulting in high vigor, huge foliage and low yields, which tend to produce expressive and body-rich wines. Many Sauvignon Blancs from South Africa combine herbaceous notes and rich fruit. Their harmony and approachable nature have increased demand for the country’s bottlings.
