Description
Still white Sauvignon Blanc, 13.5% ABV, produced by Jordan Wine Estate Stellenbosch in South Africa, 2021 vintage. A Sauvignon Blanc that expresses the unique terroir of Stellenbosch, with a focus on sustainability and enhancing the winemaking heritage. The juice was fermented in a combination of oak barrels and clay amphorae. 67% of the juice was fermented in 228-liter second- and third-fill French oak barrels and 33% in 400-liter clay amphorae for a period of 6 months. Aged “sur-lie” for 6 months with occasional barrel rotations to add richness on the palate. Captivating aromas and a complex blend of elderflower, melon, and sourdough with a hint of kelp. Bright flavors with a sensation of frankness and ancient flavor in the mid-palate, which carries over to a delicate but long finish, accompanied by notes of elderberry, which ends dry and saline.
