Sauvignon Blanc October 13, 2021
2020 Sidewood Mappinga Fume Blanc
Wine Rating
 
95
A wine that has seen the royal treatment with only free run juice fermented in 25% new and 75% 1 year old French puncheons.

The nose has soaked up the new oak with a faint spiced nuance to baked passionfruit and Meyer lemon that is lifted by fresh herbs.

The palate has a textural interplay between striking lime and restrained tropical fruits with an understated savouriness that is also given structure through the impact of new oak. A saline edge adds to the long finish that intertwines tropics fruits with savoury structure.
