The Impressionist Renosterbos Sauvignon Blanc 2021
Producer
Made for British wine importer Ellis wines in Stellenbosch 30 miles north east of Cape Town in a region close enough to the ocean to benefit from cool maritime conditions. These beautiful vineyards are dominated by scenic mountains and the region is home to some of the Cape`s most famous and influential wine estates. The most noted and important vineyards are located on the prized slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain. This small and highly rated sub-zone has fantastic terroir and is where many of South Africa`s top red cuvees are produced.
Tasting Notes
Renosterbos takes its name from the Rhinoceros bush that grows wildly in parts of South AfricaThis sauvignon blanc from South Africa’s premier wine region is highly concentrated and aromatic. Tropical & citrus fruit jump out of the glass as the dominant aromas, with layers of herbaceous, grassy notes too. The palate delivers a hugely refreshing mouthfeel, again with tropical fruit as the primary flavour. Zesty acidity with a long, fruity finish.
Food
Pairs perfectly with spring asparagus, summer salads & goat’s cheese
