Sauvignon Blanc

Fresh Atlantic Ocean Galjoen or Cape Malay Paella.

Cool climate Sauvignon Blanc is crafted with a focus on preserving the grape's inherent acidity and vibrant flavours. Sourced from the Darling region, the grapes are harvested early to capture the crispness and freshness associated with this style of wine. After gentle crushing and limited skin contact, the clarified juice undergoes fermentation at lower temperatures in stainless steel tanks. This process helps to maintain the grape's delicate aromas and ensures a lively, zesty character in the final product

Our wine affair starts with the story of us, as early as our grade eight years when we met. I always knew that I’d marry Hugo, he realized this later during our first year in Stellenbosch where we studied to become winemakers, ironically, this is also the place where we were romanced by the fruit of the vine. In 2010, in our spare time we bottled our first wine, Agaat was born, a Cape blend and ode to our family and friends that came before us and shared our dreams. It was only in 2013 that we made the big leap when Hugo decided to work full time on this part-time affair. I joined Hugo in 2017 after 8 years in wine quality assurance and compliance at Accolade Wines. Since then we have worked harder than we ever expected and learned even more, but we would do it all again if given the choice. Now years later the picturesque town of Wellington, South Africa is still our home and our family has grown to include two dogs and a cat and we are still getting great joy from this wine-life that we would like to share with you.
