About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Sauvignon Blanc 64%, Semillion 20% , Chenin Blanc 16%The 2019’s taut, smoky bouquet shows a slightly reductive liquid minerality that
is utterly captivating, slowly unfurling layer upon layer in the glass. The
initial petrichor notes of wet slate give way to crushed granite and dusty
gravel nuances underpinned by aromatics of waxy green apples, dried
fynbos, peach stone fruits and pithy white citrus. Initially dominated by the
Sauvignon Blanc and creamy grapefruit notes of the Semillon, a little time in
the glass eventually sees the Chenin Blanc component assert itself with
hints of bruised yellow orchard fruits and a soft pineapple pastille kiss. On
the palate, the unmistakable hallmark brilliance again shines with an
outstanding balance and harmony. At once fresh, bright and supremely
pure fruited, the 2019 Savage White is all about textural finesse, seamless
equilibrium and pinpoint precision. The finish is long, persistent and
intensely concentrated throwing out yet more teasing notes of passion fruit,
white peach and candied pineapple. Drink from release and over the next
3-8 years.

Medium bodied white wines have a lightly textured mouthfeel with moderate flavour impact. Often pale lemon coloured to pale gold.
