Dalla Cia, Sauvignon Blanc 2022
This release from the Dalla Cia winery is well balanced, crisp and fresh. They have sourced quality grapes from the Stellenbosch area and created a ripe, tropical style of Sauvignon Blanc.
It shows notes of sweet Cape gooseberry, ripe fig, white peach and a good minerality.
Crisp on the palate; well balanced with a lingering ripe finish. Deliciously drinkable.

“Not your typical Sauvignon; fleshy, broad, with pear, fig and light lemon succulence. Finish is resolved, with peppery aftertaste.”
