Sauvignon Blanc Reserve

This Sauvignon Blanc pairs well with full-flavored seafood dishes, creamy soups, and spicy pan-fried fish, making it an excellent companion for bold and rich dishes​.

This wine is made from two distinct vineyard blocks at different altitudes: one at 400 meters above sea level (the highest on the farm) and another at 150 meters. These vineyards grow in decomposed gravel soils with significant clay content, offering optimal drainage and water retention, which contributes to the wine's concentration and freshness. The proximity to the Atlantic Ocean adds a cool-climate influence​.

After being hand-harvested, the grapes underwent 24 hours of skin contact before pressing. The juice was then settled for 36 hours, followed by fermentation at controlled temperatures (14-16ºC) for three weeks. The wine was matured on the lees for five months, with regular lees stirring to enhance complexity and mouthfeel​.

Diemersdal is a Durbanville wine estate with six generations of Louw family winemaking behind it, dating back to 1885. Part of Wine of Origin Cape Town, the estate is shaped by cooling Atlantic mist and is best known for expressive Sauvignon Blanc, cool-climate reds and a clear Durbanville signature.
