Raka Sauvignon Blanc

The Raka Sauvignon Blanc impresses with its fresh fruit, lively acidity and clear aromas - a white wine full of character from the Western Cape in South Africa that brings pure joie de vivre to the glass. Made from 100% pure Sauvignon Blanc, it delights with its tropical nose, round mouthfeel and animating finish. Ideal for warm days, fresh dishes or as a soloist on the terrace.

The nose alone makes you want more: peach, passion fruit, guava and gooseberries characterize the aromatic bouquet. On the palate, the wine is fruity and full-bodied, with a fine hint of citrus and a refreshing, clear finish that lingers for a wonderfully long time.

The grapes for this wine were carefully harvested by hand, sorted and placed directly into the press, where they rested on their skins for 8 hours to extract their typical aromas in the best possible way. After pressing, the must was fermented at a controlled 16 °C with pure yeast cultures to preserve freshness and fruit. Extended ageing on the fine lees gives the wine additional volume. It then clarified naturally by gravity before being gently filtered and bottled.

Raka Sauvignon Blanc is the ideal accompaniment to seafood, sushi, light fish dishes or cold cuts. It also cuts an excellent figure with summer salads or simply as an aperitif.
