Doolhof Signatures of Doolhof Sauvignon Blanc 2009

An enticing, complex bouquet of capsicum and green fig. Gooseberry and passion fruit flavours introduce a perfectly tapered tail. This wine is delicious alone but is also an ideal food companion. Try pairing it with grilled butterfish on buttered asparagus or salmon fish cakes and sorrel sauce.

The bunches were stored in a cold room at 4˚C for 3 days. There after destemming and crushing commenced, and the juice was fermented between 12-14 degrees Celsius until dry. Bottled early May.
