Cape of Good Hope Altima Sauvignon Blanc 2024
2024
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Anthonij Rupert Wyne was founded on the farm L’Ormarins in Franschhoek. Originally owned by the late Anthonij Rupert, the farm was taken over by Johann Rupert in 2003. The vineyards selected for the Cape of Good Hope range represent some of the oldest in the country, lovingly tended to produce only the finest reflection of their terroir. The Cape of Good Hope Altima Sauvignon Blanc 2024 displays appealingly bold aromas of tropical fruits - guava, kiwi, and fig - highlighted by a light grapefruit sheen. Taut, crisp, and tangy, the palate boasts an abundance of citrus vivacity. The ripe tropical notes from the nose are present as well, with kiwi and fig complemented by a light dusting of flint and white pepper for added complexity. Texture is impressive, with a leesy breadth and length that define its character. The balance and harmony of fruit, acid, and lees are notable, and the finish is remarkably lingering.
