Tasting Notes: This is an elegant, layered Sauvignon Blanc, reminiscent of a dry white Bordeaux. A sophisticated, rich wine with layers of citrus, straw and minerality, herbal notes and a hint of creamy vanilla.
Winemaking: The Sauvignon Blanc was settled and fermented in a mixture of concrete eggs, old wood and stainless steel. Sémillon was fermented in stainless and spent 6 months on lees in a concrete egg. Ten percent of the wine is made up from Lightning 2020 which spent 18 months on lees in barrel. Total production was 6,500 bottles.
This wine is named for the charismatic 'Lightning' Kruger National Park's most famous painted wolf & dedicated to the conservation of African Wild Dogs and their natural habitat.
