Constantia Uitsig Sauvignon Blanc

This fresh and fruity Sauvignon Blanc from Constantia Uitsig has everything that connoisseurs expect from a Sauvignon Blanc from South Africa. The bouquet of this white wine is wonderfully multi-faceted. It combines notes of lychee, guava and blackcurrant. There are also complementary, harmonious nuances of elderberry and gooseberry.

On the palate, the Constantia Uitsig Sauvignon Blanc is dry and intensely fruity and aromatic (guava and gooseberry). The South African white wine has a fine minerality and pleasant acidity. It lingers for a long time.

Fiona McDonald awards this Sauvignon Blanc 4 out of 5 stars in John Platter's Wine Guide. She describes Constantia Uitsig's creation as "lively, taut and tangy, with characteristic lime zest and white pepper".

The history of viticulture in the Constantia Uitsig vineyards dates back to the 16th century. The vineyard is located between Table Mountain (15 kilometers north of Constantia Uitsig) and False Bay (10 kilometers south). The conditions for viticulture are ideal here. Most of the pure Sauvignon Blanc was matured in stainless steel tanks, a small proportion in concrete.

Enjoy the Constantia Uitsig Sauvignon Blanc at a drinking temperature of 8 to 10 degrees. It is an ideal accompaniment to salmon fillet, a fresh salad with chicken, prawns or a mild soft cheese.
