Sauvignon Blanc Family Reserve - Kleine Zalze

In the glass, the Sauvignon Blanc Family Reserve from Kleine Zalze reveals a bright pale yellow color. When swirling the glass, one can perceive a first-class balance in this white wine, as it does not stand out watery or syrupy or liqueur-like on the walls of the glass. The first nose of Sauvignon Blanc Family Reserve reveals notes of pineapple, papaya and star fruit. The fruity parts of the bouquet are joined by more fruity-balsamic nuances.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with 3.5 grams of residual sugar. This is a real quality wine, which clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so this South African naturally enchants with the finest balance despite all dryness. Aroma does not necessarily need a lot of sugar. Balanced and complex, this crisp and dense white wine presents itself on the palate. Due to its vital fruit acidity, the Sauvignon Blanc Family Reserve presents itself impressively fresh and lively on the palate. In the finish, this youthful from the Coastal winegrowing region finally inspires with good length. Again, hints of pineapple and physalis show up.
