2009 Bouchard Finlayson Blanc de Mer

A kaleidoscope of flavors with citrus blossom bouquets, dominated on the palate by powerful tropical flinty peach tastes with a hint of honey. The wine is rich and inviting. The finish is not quite dry but the palate does finish with excellent length. Served well chilled, it is ideal with oysters, salmon and fresh line fish. Rhine Riesling, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc.

About This Wine:

Bouchard Finlayson Estate
Near the Southernmost point of Africa lays a valley named Hemel-en-Aarde (Heaven and Earth) framed by mountains and within sight of the ocean, with frost free, soft, beneficial weather and the most perfect clay shale vineyard soils. Established in 1989, Bouchard Finlayson is a boutique winery dedicated to the making of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc wines of outstanding quality. Bouchard Finlayson is located in the wine ward of Walker Bay, an hour and a half from Cape Town. The 125-hectare property currently has 19 hectares under vines; the rest is mountain land covered by the spectacular indigenous Fynbos Flora of the Western Cape.
