Tasting Note

The 2022 Steenberg Sauvignon Blanc, pale-straw in colour with an ever so slight green hue, shows fresh cape gooseberry, nettle, lemon zest, granny smith apple pith, and white peach. This cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc has a sumptuous entry tied to an enduring length. The lifting acidity maintains a lively flavour on the palate with citrus blossom and quince while maintaining a distinctive mineral core derived from the Steenberg terroir.

Product Notes

Hailing from the oldest farm in Cape Town's luscious Constantia Valley, the Steenberg Sauvignon Blanc is truly remarkable. With a refreshing vibrancy, this wine captures the essence of crisp green apples, freshly picked gooseberries, nettles and tropical fruit. The palate is well-balanced, unveiling juicy layers of elderflower and passionfruit, leaving an invigorating minerality on the finish. Its subtle grassy aroma is irresistibly appealing. Perfectly showcasing its cool-climate roots, Steenberg Sauvignon Blanc is a refined choice perfect for pairing with seafood, salads or as an aperitif at sophisticated soirees. This wine is truly an ode to the elegance of Sauvignon Blanc, a cork to be popped on special occasions.
