About This Wine


Wisdom Point

Sauvignon Blanc

Located around the same latitude as parts of Central Australia, the Western Cape of South Africa is a truly unique and beautiful spot for winegrowing. The region experiences dry, hot days that are mitigated by cooler moments thanks to maritime influences and winds coming off the bordering Atlantic Ocean. Fruit is grown at low elevations, which allows for full ripening under the sunny skies. Our award-winning Sauvignon Blanc is made in Sancerre style with an Old World weightiness but New World flavors. White floral aromas complement tropical and citrus fruit notes. Thanks to coastal influences, a pronounced minerality and salinity rounds out the finish. Natural acidity makes the taste linger on the palate and will have you reaching for another glass! Lovely to drink on its own or a perfect pair for all kinds of fresh seafood dishes. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

Wine Region


Western Cape

The majority of South Africa's best wines are produced in the southwest coastal zones around Cape Town, known collectively as the Western Cape. Sandwiched between the country's majestic mountains and its cooling ocean coasts (the Atlantic to the west of the Cape of Good Hope, the Indian Ocean to its east), the Western Cape offers a wealth of winemaking riches. Regions here include the Breede River Valley, Cape South Coast, Coastal Region, Klein Karoo and Olifants River.
