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
"This is the second year that Cape Point's top white has included a portion of Sauvignon Gris, which adds an extra nuance to the base of 70% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon. Barrel- fermented in 30% new French and Austrian oak, it's one of South Africa's greatest whites, with layers of grapefruit, greengage, elderflower and sweet kitchen spices, chiselled acidity and perfectly judged wood integration. Bravo! 2025-32" Tim Atkin
Food Pairing
This wine pairs beautifully with seafood dishes, such as oysters, lobster, and grilled fish, as well as with lighter poultry dishes and creamy pasta. Its vibrant acidity and minerality also make it an excellent match for fresh salads and goat cheese.
