Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Sauvignon Blanc

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.

Wine at a Glance
Country: South Africa
Region: Stellenbosch
Alcohol: 13.5% ABV

Tasting Profile: Intense aromas of tropical fruit with prominent granadilla and pineapple. Zesty and flinty on the palate with the ever-present herbaceous character from Sauvignon Blanc.

Food Pairing: Excellent on its own, or served with barbecued meat, veal, poultry, pasta and red meat dishes.

Serving: Serve chilled at 8–12°C.

Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Chardonnay

Remarks: Very cold and wet winter in 2021 (perfect for Chardonnay) ensured even budding for the Chardonnays and a normal size crop compared to the previous years. Moderate summer days with cold evenings was the perfect setting for a great 2022 harvest. The higher altitude Stellenbosch vineyards that face False Bay contributed texture and fruit, while the Robertson and Bonnievale vineyards generally contribute more minerality owing to the limestone-based soils.
