2008 Bouchard Finlayson Sauvignon Blanc

More tropical than grassy and more delicate than overpowering; pure fruit tones and good balance. Clean gooseberry aromas with a touch of smoke and mineral character. Acidity in harmony with good strong mouth feel, fresh and enticing. More body than in previous vintages and its palate cleansing freshness lends itself to a range of fish and seafood dishes.

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.
