Tastes like hens teeth and smells like unicorn sweat. Not really! Very typical sauv blanc flavours. Guava, grapefruit and green pepper (great alliteration too), but really well balanced with none of the acidity you get with a lot of Sauv Blanc. A really unexpected suprise.
I am not a wine expert. I am not in the wine industry. I can get a bit pretentious when describing wine sometimes, and other times I can't think of a word to describe what I'm tasting. I do love wine, drink a lot of it, live in the Western Cape of South Africa and visit a lot of wine farms though.
Hopefully this site will help strangers to SA wine pick a good bottle over a bad one, and visit the better wine farms that I've enjoyed. At worst, at least I will be able to use it to remember what is was I was drinking last night!
