Jordan Timepiece Sauvignon Blanc 2025
R466,00
Beguiling aromatics and a complex mixture of elderflower, honeydew melon and sourdough with a hint of kelp. Bright flavours with a shy and Old-World feel to the mid-palate that carries over to a delicate but long, leesy finish that ends dry and saline.
Timepiece is a wine collection that captures a part of the Jordan heritage. The collection includes single vineyard wines from our estate vineyards, older than 35 years and carries the stamp of the estate founder, Ted Jordan.

In the cellar
The juice mphora was fermented in a combination of oak barrels, clay amphora, and tank. 38% of the juice was barrel-fermented in 228L barrels; 11% in 1st fill barrels, and 16% in 2nd fill. 10% of the juice was fermented in 400L clay amphora – the amphora clay pot has the natural ability to keep the lees in constant suspension during fermentation. Malolactic fermentation took place in both amphora and barrel. 52% was tank fermented to retain the freshness of the wine. The wine was matured "sur-lie" for 9 months with occasional "barrel rolling" to add richness to the palate. No sulphur was added during vinification or aging of the wine prior to bottling.
