Product Description
This Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc showcases terroir-driven winemaking that prioritizes site character over varietal dominance. The 2024 vintage balances Old World minerality and structure with New World richness, creating a wine of genuine complexity. A thoughtful blend of vineyard sources—iron and clay-rich soils contributing texture, granitic parcels adding perfume and openness, and sandstone elements delivering bright, saline minerality—results in a sophisticated expression of place. Rather than relying on typical Sauvignon Blanc aromatics, this wine emphasizes palate depth and mineral precision, positioning it as a serious fine wine worthy of contemplation.

Tasting PanelThis winery is named for the rare southern right whales that frequent Walker Bay in May and December, to whose conservation it contributes. The vineyards are close to the Atlantic Ocean, and that shows in this wine's salty, seashell-like tonality. It expresses a delicate style through subtle notes of flint, white flowers, and lemon sorbet.

VinousThe 2024 Sauvignon Blanc comes from the clayey Cape Coast, plus granitic soils in Elgin, matured 8% in used oak and the rest in stainless steel. It has a well-defined bouquet with grapefruit, nettle, dandelion and subtle earthy scents. The palate is well balanced, crisp and linear, with fine delineation. Quite an elegant Sauvignon Blanc, it boasts a precise, sapid finish that urges you back for more. This is very well made and very delicious.
