The Buitenverwachting Sauvignon Blanc Constantia flows pale lemon yellow into the glass and presents itself with a delicious bouquet of green figs, gooseberry, green peppers. Without doubt, this is one of the best Sauvignons Blanc in South Africa. Despite its complexity, this white is soft and balanced, elegant and long lasting on the finish.
Buitenverwachting is, along with Klein and Groot Constantia, one of the most important wineries in this growing area. It all began in Constantia, the cradle of South African viticulture. The wines enjoy the best reputation worldwide, especially the Sauvignon Blanc.
