I went to our reserve Sauvignon blanc blocks early this morning to taste some grapes, and ooooo maaaannn was I in for a treat!! There are two blocks. One on a Southern slope facing Table Mountain, the other on a Northern slope. The difference in the flavour profile is astonishing! The Southern slope Sauvignon blanc has herbaceous flavours, including strong Green Pepper and Green Figs. The Northern slope Sauvignon blanc has tropical flavours. The current chemical analysis of these blocks are nothing short of phenomenal. 22.8 balling, 3.08 pH and 11.75 TA. We will start harvesting on Friday. Can’t wait for the wine!
