In the cellar
Fermentation in Stainless steel tanks at 13°C. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine is racked with thin lees. Occasional lees stirring to enhance fruit flavors. The result is to create a wine that delivers the best expression of a Sauvignon blanc, the Stellenbosch region has to offer.
In the vineyard
This wine took us on an adventurous sourcing and discovery of beautiful pockets in the Stellenbosch region. We fell in love with one specific vineyard with the most spectacular view. Regular monitoring of this vineyard and tasting the fruit development was amazing. Only the best section of the block was picked, where the viticulturists and I found the fruit profile best expressed. Ultimately in one block we wanted to capture various fruit components.
Ageing
Ready to drink but will develop favourably in bottle for 3 or 4 years.
Cultivar
Sauvignon Blanc
Food Pairing
Delicious as an aperitif, it will pep up seafood platters and tapas-style starters.

About the Wine Estate
Le Grand Domaine is situated at the top of beautiful Devon Valley, overlooking the majestic Stellenbosch mountains. Devon Valley is one of Stellenbosch’s best-kept secrets, both scenically and viticulturally. Vines have flourished here since the 18th century and it has an enviable reputation, not only for the red wines that are made here, but also as a source of premium grapes. The Devon Valley was demarcated in 1997, within the Stellenbosch Wine of Origin. The valley is open to the south and demarcated by low hills on the other side
