Cape Agulhas Sauvignon Blanc 2025 Unlabelled

Willem Van Zyl — Thu, 01 Oct 2026 08:07:58 +0000

Displays an explosive nose with vibrant, expressive aromas of blackcurrant, fresh granadilla, and a crisp touch of wild gooseberry. The palate delivers a smooth, beautifully weighted glycerol mouthfeel that showcases a range of concentrated, ripe tropical and green fruits. All of this is held perfectly in balance by a piercing, saline-edged crisp acidity that structures and enhances this distinctively full-bodied Sauvignon Blanc.

Additional Info:

Only a small batch of 4 tons was produced in an open fermenter. Half the grapes were destemmed and the other half was whole bunch with gently crushing-foot stomping by the cellar team. Fermentation took place with selected Rhone yeast strains at 22-26 Deg. Punch downs were done twice a day and the wine was barrel matured for 10 months in 2nd and 3rd fill French oak barrels.

Strandveld refers to the coastal belt of land which straddles the coastline around Africa’s southern most tip of Cape Agulhas. Their wines reflect their wild origins of diverse terroir and a maritime climate through remarkable complexity and singularity.
