The 2025 Zevenwacht Estate Sauvignon Blanc shows bright gooseberry and passion fruit at first, followed by layers of green fig, grapefruit, and ripe nectarine. Its mineral edge frames the concentrated fruit, while lively acidity keeps the palate crisp and persistent.
The finish is long and refreshing, offering a clear taste of Stellenbosch purity. It pairs beautifully with citrus grilled prawns or a fresh goat cheese salad.

The grapes were given up to 6 hours of skin contact to allow for flavor extraction from the skins before pressing. The juice was handled reductively and cold-fermented to protect the delicate thiol characteristics of the grape variety. Five months of lees contact were given to add mid-palate weight to the blend.
