Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Sauvignon Blanc

2,895 KShs

Remarks: The grapes were sourced primarily from: Stellenbosch, with some parcels from Darling, Durbanville, Elim and Koekenaap on the West Coast. The common denominator is that all vineyards are found within 15km from the ocean and thus the cooling sea breezes are the common denominator. The 2022 vintage will be remembered for the very late start and very cool growing conditions. This was perfect for our Sauvignon blanc vineyards.

Kleine Zalze is an award-winning winery situated in the heart of the Cape Winelands, just two miles from: Stellenbosch. Winemaking has taken place on our estate on a small scale since 1695 but it was in 1996, when Kobus Basson and his family purchased the property, that the modern Kleine Zalze was born.

Our philosophy is simple success begins in the vineyards. Exceptional wines are made possible by selecting varieties and clones specifically suited to the various soils and slopes, and further careful management of the farm’s extensive natural assets.
