Vergenoegd Löw Sauvignon Blanc 2022
R180,00
Extraordinary things happen where the ocean meets Vergenoegd’s vineyards. Their traditional Oak barrels imbue their wines with their characteristic depth of flavour and velvety mouthfeel. Uniquely located off the coast of False Bay, the vineyards enjoy bright summers. Initial asparagus tones on the nose ease into concentrated greengage and gooseberry aromas and flavours with a lovely touch of the flintiness that is the calling card of this terroir.

About the Wine Estate
Vergenoegd Löw is one of the most intact of the early Cape farms and a very important heritage site, national monument, part of the European Heritage Project and a World Wildlife Fund (WWF) partner. This estate - now 325 years old - tells the stories of the owners, their families, slaves, Khoi labourers and farm life over three centuries. It is a fascinating tale of a host of individual vrijburger and other farmers who farmed with grapes, wines, different kinds of livestock, crops and feed grains.
