Cape Mentelle Wallcliffe Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Again, a split of two vineyards for the fruit, but 100% Sauvignon Blanc on this occasion. 80% is fermented in barrels with the remaining 20% in concrete eggs. Maturation is on lees for ten months, 60% in barrel, 20% stainless steel and 20% in eggs. Pale lemon yellow in colour, this offers a delightful freshness with florals and citrus, mixed with the tropicals. Grapefruit and passionfruit are certainly to the fore here with good direction and some early complexity. A lingering finish too, this is a beautifully crafted Savvy. Drink now for the next four plus years. Cracking wine.
