Lothian Vineyards
In its opulent setting on the banks of the Palmiet River and a private lake in the Elgin Valley Lothian Vineyards shines in a class all of its own. Years of searching for the perfect location finally revealed Elgin’s cool-climate terroir as an elegant setting for growing grapes to produce exceptional Burgundian-style Pinot Noir Chardonnay Riesling and Rose varietals. The Wilson family’s non-interventionist artisanal wine-making technique flows into the feel of Lothian House: a feat of modern architecture designed with sensitivity towards the environment.Lothian estate is distinguished by nature positioned in the Kogelberg Biosphere which possesses 1654 plant species found nowhere else on earth.
Description
The 2024 Lothian Horny Owl Sauvignon Blanc offers alluring aromas of guava juice, warm oranges and blood-red grapefruit. A soft and juicy entry with refreshing, well-integrated acidity and a hint of sweetness to balance and add to the complexity. Beautiful mid-palate weight, the flavours exude clementine peel, ripe apple and guava pieces, and the finish is zesty and long.
