Bellevue Sauvignon Blanc 2022
R115,00
Ocean breezes cool down the vines planted on our highest slopes to result in a racy, refreshing wine for watching the sunset after a sweltering summer’s day.
Tropical notes of pineapple, granadilla and litchi on the nose are followed by vibrant hints of crisp green apple and blackcurrant on the palate, with a lingering freshness.
