Cape Point Vineyards
Cape Point Vineyards is uniquely located in the Cape Peninsula where it is set rather majestically against the slopes of the famous Chapman’s Peak mountain range and overlooks the nearby Atlantic Ocean – a mere 1 2km’s away. Cool sea breezes along with ancient mountain soils make for a unique terroir with a late growing season that results in a world class Sauvignon Blanc with minerals tones and great complexity.
Description
"At 30%, the proportion of Semillon in this exemplary blend with Sauvignon Blanc is at its highest yet. The bunches were tiny in 2021 - "small enough to fit in the palm of my hand" says Riandri Visser - and you can taste the concentration in the wine. Fermented in 30% new 600 litre barrels, this is a structured, intense, subtly wooded cuvée with cinnamon, green herb and pink grapefruit flavours and thrilling minerality. 2023-30" Tim Atkin South Africa Report 2022
