The Reyneke Organic Sauvignon Blanc beguiles the nose with a fragrant bouquet of lemon, lime and Cape gooseberry, coupled with hints of green apple and elderflower. On the palate, too, this fresh white presents itself with a well-integrated play of acidity as well as wonderfully fruity nuances, which again pick up on the already sniffed aromas of lime and Cape gooseberry. The finish is refreshing, crisp and well textured.

The grapes were destemmed, pressed and left to rest overnight. Fermentation took place spontaneously in a combination of steel tanks and older French oak barrels. "Spontaneous" in this context means that no commercial yeasts were added to the juice; only the wild yeast naturally occurring on the fruit and in the environment set the fermentation in motion. Once fermentation was complete, the wine spent six months on its lees, after which the wines, aged in wood as well as in steel, were blended and bottled.
