Alinea Sauvignon Blanc 2021
Vineyards
St. Helena Bay, West Coast
Winemaking and Maturation
Winemaking is kept simple – foot-treading, minimal sulphur and old oak. The range of wine incorporates Sauvignon Blanc from St. Helena Bay, Carignan, Grenache and Viura from the Breedekloof. There are two more special blocks of wine that Natasha planted stok-by-paaltjie in Noordhoek, one Syrah and one a field blend of Grenache Blanc, Verdelho, Chenin Blanc, Colombar, Roussanne and Semillon. Both blocks are organically farmed.
Tasting Notes
The Alinea Sauvignon Blanc is rich and textured with concentrated flavours of grapefruit, guava and granadilla. There is an unmistakable savouriness and salinity. FermentaQon and ageing in oak add layers of complexity. The finish is long and lingering.
