Outstanding, cool climate Sauvignon Blanc from the renowned slopes of the Schapenberg which combines ripe, varietal fruit with texture, depth and minerality.
 
Living soils and a natural approach to winemaking means that each of the single-varietal wines in the Circumstance range is truly defined by the circumstances influencing the chosen varietal and vineyard blocks, including: soil, aspect, altitude and vintage. These factors combine to produce low yields, balanced grapes and wines with a true sense of place. The Sauvignon Blanc is from three windswept, south-facing (less sun exposure) blocks 270-300m above and a mere 2 miles from The Atlantic. The vines are 20 years old and production was a miserly 4 tons per hectare. Waterkloof follow a traditional, minimalistic approach in their gravitational cellar which means interfering as little as possible with the winemaking process. This allows the flavours prevalent in that specific vineyard to ultimately express themselves in the wine.
 
Vibrant lime and gooseberry fruit on the nose, with crushed laurel on the nose along with lime and a lightly salty tang. This is a herbaceous and textured style of Sauvignon, with good concentration of citrus, fennel and grassy notes, leading to a taut, mineral acidity.
 
Ideal with fresh oysters or fresh crayfish on the grill. Great with a goat's cheese too.
