Bruce Jack Sauvignon Blanc, 2023

A special selection of grapes is destined for Bruce Jack whites from selected vineyards. More importantly, we receive them very early in the morning, while still cool. Grapes are crushed, juice drained and skins pressed. After the juice is settled, the clear juice is used to ferment in an attempt to highlight the vineyard-specific aromatics. Special tanks are given extended lees contact. The point of difference results from carefully blending premium Sauvignon Blanc vineyards from different areas. The cool climate component from the Cape South Coast lends this wine intense crunchy green apple and lemongrass. The riper components provide juicy white peach and a touch of citrus. Gooseberry & apple pie with a twist of lime. Go Green – fresh green herbs, be it parsley, basil, coriander, or mint and a squeeze of lime. These flavours in salads, rice dishes, or in a delicate sauce, served with fish-like sole or snapper. Fresh oysters are also a natural partner. The wine shows great versatility – try goats cheese and olives. Can be enjoyed now or over the next few years. Or cellar at a cool temperature for 2 years.
