Excelsior Sauvignon Blanc (75cl, 12.5%)

Excelsior Sauvignon Blanc is a white wine from Robertson, South Africa, made entirely from Sauvignon Blanc. It is bottled at 12.5% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The fruit is sourced from three soil types: limestone-rich calcareous clay, alluvial soils and high-altitude shale-based vineyards. All grapes are hand-harvested. The nose shows passion fruit, lime, ripe fig and a grassy, herbaceous edge, with green apple, gooseberry, tropical citrus and litchi on the palate, plus minerality and well-integrated acidity. The finish is lengthy and fruit-driven, with lingering passionfruit and a clean, bracing acidity.
