About the Wine
Block no.20 (aka ‘Oupa’) delivers spectacular grapes with fresh aromas of citrus, herbs and Cape gooseberries. Tropical fruity notes such as kiwi and guava are well balanced with subtle wood nuances that continue to blend in with the wine’s intense complexity from spending 100 days on the lees. The ideal levels of acidity ensure that the wine delivers a cacophony of flavours.
Winemaker's Notes: “One of just a few old vine Sauvignon Blanc wines in South Africa with vines planted in 1985. Blanc Fumé style, this wine spends 6 months in 1st and 2nd fill French oak. It is the only old vine and Blanc Fumé from wine of origin Breedekloof.”
