Ten Year Tree

Cooling southeasterly winds — known locally as the Cape Doctor — used to rustle the branches of old apple trees found in the orchards of South Africa's Western Cape. Nowadays, rows of trellised grapevines have taken the trees' place lining these sun-soaked shores. Our Ten Year Tree Sauvignon Blanc symbolizes the bright and delicious future of this New World wine region and its talented winemakers. Exotic fruit flavors and lively acid will thrill your palate and ignite a newfound excitement about this lesser-known gem. A warm climate and cooling oceanic influence create ideal conditions for ripe fruit packed with flavor and refreshing acidity. Our winemaking partners take this a step further by harvesting in the early hours of the morning and fermenting the wine at cool temperatures to hang on to every ounce of freshness. If this is your first taste of South African wine, prepare yourself to fall in love. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.
