Cape Heights Sauvignon Blanc gives plenty of more expensive New Zealand examples a run for their money! This wine displays fresh, green apple aromas, exotic lime zest and a lovely grassy quality, which all make for a zippy, racy and refreshing glass of Sav Blanc! The Cape Heights range offers fantastic value for money and this is no exception!
Boutinot has been refining and redefining its Sauvignon Blanc vineyards over many years and work with numerous Coastal growers to best express the specific terroirs of this region that is influenced by that cooling Atlantic Ocean breeze. The soil type is a variety of decomposed granite, shale and limestone and the plots are all unirrigated. The winery receives the grapes before midday. They are destemmed and crushed and go into strainers where the free run is pumped gently to tank. The Sauvignon Blanc is fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks between 11C and 13C. The ferment is likely to last around 10 days. The wine is racked after ferment and then kept on fine lees right up until bottling.
