Fryer's Cove Doringbaai Harbour Sauvignon Blanc Reserve brims with a vibrant mix of citrus and passion-fruit aromas, while wisps of fresh seaweed awaken the senses. The nose follows through on the palate with intense lime and tropical flavours, rounded off with lingering salty minerality that is so typical of the Cape West Coast and Bamboes Bay.
The Bamboes Bay Sauvignon Blanc vineyards are located 500m from the ice cold Atlantic along the Cape West Coast. Planted in Hutton-type soil layered with limestone which extends deep into the earth. Bamboes Bay is South Africa's smallest demarcated wine ward.
The winemaking process at Fryer's Cove is, in true West Coast style, very simple with minimal intervention and interference. The grapes are gently destemmed and then pressed, with only the finest free-run juice making it's way into the Bamboes Bay wines. Settling occurs overnight with a small amount of settling enzymes. The juice is then racked and inoculated with yeast, to begin fermentation. After fermentation, the wines is left to age on its lees to further broaden mouth-feel and texture.
