The bouquet of Protea Sauvignon Blanc pampers the nose with fresh and lively aromas of ripe stone fruit, nectarine and juicy pear drops. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of tropical fruit, paired with a tangy acidity, excellent structure and a pleasurable length. Full-bodied and round, this white wine ends in a crisp, fresh finish with a fine and dry aftertaste.

The grapes for the Protea Sauvignon Blanc were completely destemmed, crushed and left to rest on the skin overnight. The free-running juice was then removed and the skins were pressed. This was followed by a two-day resting period before the grapes from the different growing areas were vinified separately using selected yeast cultures. After the fermentation was completed, the wine spent some time on the yeast to obtain a well-rounded and full-bodied palate.
