The Sauvignon blanc temps with its accessibility and anytime enjoyment, not only in style and value, but also with its quick-and-easy screwcap closure. A wine to enjoy as aperitif or with good food. Colour Green tinged Nose This wine teases the nose with flavours of green capsicum, freshly cut grass and hints of gooseberry.
