The Impressionist Renosterbos Sauvignon Blanc 2024

£11.95 per bottle

ABV 12.5%

Tasting Notes
Renosterbos takes its name from the Rhinoceros bush that grows wildly in parts of South Africa. This sauvignon blanc from South Africa’s premier wine region is highly concentrated and aromatic. Tropical & citrus fruit jump out of the glass as the dominant aromas, with layers of herbaceous, grassy notes too. The palate delivers a hugely refreshing mouthfeel, again with tropical fruit as the primary flavour. Zesty acidity with a long, fruity finish.

Food
Pairs perfectly with spring asparagus, summer salads & goat’s cheese

Region
This famous region is 30 miles north east of Cape Town yet still close enough to the ocean to benefit from cool maritime conditions. These beautiful vineyards are dominated by scenic mountains and the region is home to some of the Cape`s most famous and influential wine estates. The most noted and important vineyards are located on the prized slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain. This small and highly rated sub-zone has fantastic terroir and is where many of South Africa`s top red cuvees are produced.
