Org de Rac Sauvignon Blanc 2022 (6)

VINEYARD BACKGROUND - Grapes were sourced from two diverse regions to create
an expansive avour prole. e one batch is grown in the cool coastal region of
Lutzville, with the other component originating from warmer McGregor. e
cool-climate component imparts greener and herbaceous avours, while the
warm-climate element adds a tropical fruit character. e vineyards are managed
using environmentally sustainable farming practices to preserve the rich biodiversity
of our grape-growing sites
WINEMAKING PROCESS - A winemaking philosophy of minimal intervention is
followed, which allows the inherent characteristics of the grapes' terroir to shine
through in the wine. Grapes are carefully sorted upon arrival at the cellar to ensure
that only the nest quality fruit are fermented. After a light press, the juice is inoculated
with natural and organic-approved yeasts. e wine was left on its lees for a few
months after fermentation to add complexity and texture.
WINEMAKER'S TASTING NOTES - e light green tint of this wine gives a hint of its
vibrant youthfulness. A classically-styled Sauvignon Blanc, it exudes bright passion
fruit, litchi and melon avours, with grapefruit, lime and green bell-pepper in the
background. e ripe fruit is balanced by a bright acidity and mineral freshness.
SERVING SUGGESTION - Enjoy this wine well chilled on its own or paired with
crunchy summer salads, fresh sh and other seafood, as well as grilled chicken.
